PERSONAL DISABILITY LEAVE. After six months from date of employment, an employee shall be entitled to leaves of absence without pay for not more than two periods aggregating to no more than 90 calendar days within a 12-month period upon presentation of acceptable proof of his/her personal disability. Before such leave, the employee must have used all accrued vacation, paid sick leave or compensatory time off, unless the employee is receiving accrued vacation, paid sick leave or compensatory time off as a supplement to disability insurance benefits under Section 16 of this Memorandum, in which event the employee shall be entitled to personal disability leave. But the employee's entitlement to personal disability leave shall be reduced by the hourly equivalent of the disability insurance payment (hours of personal disability deducted per pay period divided by the employee's normal hourly rate) provided, however, that an employee who has exhausted paid leave balances and is receiving disability insurance only shall have personal disability leave deducted on a day-for-day basis. Such leave may be extended by mutual agreement of the employee and the County. The County may require acceptable proof of the employee's ability to return to work provided that the County shall notify the employee in writing of such requirement in advance. If the submitted proof is deemed unacceptable, the County shall immediately notify the employee in writing of existing deficiencies in the submitted proof. Employees granted leave under this subsection shall be returned to the same classification and the County shall make its best effort to return such employee to the same geographical location, shift, and where there is specialization within a classification, to the same specialization. Questions as to whether or not the County has used its best effort herein shall not be subject to the grievance procedure.
