Common use of Reinstatement from Leave Clause in Contracts

Reinstatement from Leave. Upon expiration of leave, an employee is entitled to be reinstated to the position of employment held when the leave commenced, or to an equivalent position with equivalent benefits and pay. Employees have no greater rights to reinstatement, benefits, and other conditions of employment than if the employee had been continuously employed in active service during the leave period. If the employee and District have agreed upon a date of reinstatement at the beginning of the leave, the District will reinstate the employee on the date agreed upon. If the reinstatement date differs from the original agreed-upon date, the District will reinstate the employee within two business days of the employee’s return to work, where feasible. Employees may be required to periodically report on their status and intent to return to work. This will avoid any delays to reinstatement when the employee is ready to return. As a condition of reinstatement of an employee whose leave was due to the employee’s own serious health condition that made the employee unable to perform their job the employee must obtain and present a fitness-for-duty certification from the health care provider stating that the employee is able to resume work. Failure to provide such certification will result in the denial of reinstatement.
