OCCUPATIONAL ILLNESS AND ACCIDENTS. 7.01 Fire Fighters off duty as a result of an accident or occupational illness incurred in the performance of their duties, shall be provided with hospital and medical care as provided by The Workplace Safety Insurance Act. An employee off duty as a result of an accident or an occupational illness incurred in the performance of his/her duties shall be paid the difference between Workplace Safety Insurance Act rates and the Fire Fighter's normal net rate of pay as adjusted from time to time, such that his/her take-home pay will be neither more nor less than would be the case were he/she in active service. The sick leave bank will not be utilized to provide any form of income for any compensable illness or injury arising from self employment or employment with an employer other than the Corporation.
OCCUPATIONAL ILLNESS AND ACCIDENTS. 23.01 In the event of a disability covered by the Act respecting industrial accidents and occupational diseases, the Polytechnique shall pay a postdoctoral fellow the income replacement benefit provided for in the Act and shall, if necessary, make up the difference between this benefit and the postdoctoral fellow’s net salary for up to the first fifty-two (52) weeks of their total disability. If the salary increase date falls during this period, the postdoctoral fellow shall receive the salary increase to which they are entitled. The postdoctoral fellow shall be subject to the provisions of the Act for the remainder. For the purposes of this Article, the term “net salary” means the salary remaining after provincial and federal taxes and Québec Pension Plan and Employment Insurance contributions have been deducted. The Polytechnique shall declare to the CNESST the higher of the following two amounts: either the gross annual salary in effect as of the first day of absence, or the total earnings in the preceding twelve (12) months calculated in accordance with the provisions in the Act. When income tax forms are issued, the Polytechnique shall send the postdoctoral fellow a notice stating the benefit amount payable by the CNESST during that year.
