Pooling of Sick Leave. Employees belonging to the LESPA and LEA bargaining units, administrators, and central office staff who have a minimum of thirty six (36) accumulated days may pool sick leave days and contribute them to another employee (including pregnancy-related disabilities) who has exhausted his/her accumulated sick leave days. However, an employee may not contribute more than one (1) day of sick leave to an individual employee within a given school year. He/she may contribute to more than one (1) individual within a given school year. An employee may receive only as many sick days as they had accumulated at the onset of the illness. The sick pool committee may review extreme circumstances not addressed in this section on a case by case basis. Sick days given shall not exceed the number required to get an individual to qualify for long term disability where applicable. For purposes of this section only, all “days” shall be equal regardless of hours worked or rate of compensation.
