Medical Consideration Sample Clauses

Medical Consideration. A. If an employee, due to documented medical reasons, is unable to perform his/her assigned duties she/he may request consideration for other employment in the district within the bargaining unit for which he/she is qualified when a vacancy occurs. The designation of “medical consideration” does not guarantee an employee a new position, but provides for interview consideration as outlined in this section. B. Eligibility for this medical consideration will be determined mutually by the Local Presidents of employee organizations and the Director of Personnel and Employee Relations. This committee will consider all pertinent issues, i.e.: salary, scheduled hours, placement on salary schedule. The time limit for medical consideration will be two (2) years from receipt of original documentation. After approval is granted, updated medical documentation to support the continuation of medical consideration must be submitted to the Director of Personnel every three (3) months. C. Once an employee has been designated for medical consideration, the individual must qualify and apply for any new position the individual seeks. The employee(s) designated for “medical consideration” will have his/her name submitted to the interview team after the lateral transfer process has been completed and prior to any other names being submitted to the interview team. The interview team must interview the medical consideration applicant(s) and make a decision on the applicant(s) prior to receiving the names of other applicants.
