Sick Leave Pool The purpose of the emergency sick leave pool is to furnish additional sick days for certified staff under the negotiated agreement. This leave can only be used during the school year after the teacher has exhausted all regular accumulated sick leave and discretionary leave. Leave will be granted for catastrophic illness or injury of the employee only, on a first-come, first-ask basis. The emergency sick leave pool will be funded by the days certified staff has over the 80-day maximum sick leave this is given to each employee on July 1 of each year. All days over the 80-day accumulated sick leave the employees receive will be put into an emergency sick leave pool with an accumulation not to exceed 80 days for the pool. The maximum number of emergency sick leave pool days that may be accumulated during the school year is 20 days. A written application along with a physician’s statement documenting the nature of the catastrophic illness or injury must be sent to the building principal. The Emergency Sick Leave Pool Committee will meet within 10 calendar days after receiving the application to consider the request. The application may be sent to the building principal before the employee’s regular sick leave ends. The Emergency Sick Leave Pool Committee will consist of six members. One member from each of the four schools (“Primary, Intermediate, Middle, and High School”) the Superintendent and the building principal from the building of the applicant. All members will meet to determine ach request; however, the committee member representing the same building as the applicant will not vote. The building principal and superintendent will vote in all cases. The committee members will serve for a period of two years. The Primary and Middle School members will be elected on even calendar years and the Intermediate and the High School members will be elected on odd calendar years. If a member of the committee leaves the employment of the USD 210 before the end of his/her term, the committee will appoint a new committee member form the affected building. The committee members will be in place by September 1 of each year. The emergency sick leave bank may not be used to cover employees who are receiving pay, salary protection payments, and disability insurance payments or are eligible to receive compensation from workers’ compensation or KPERS disability.
Sick Leave Section 1. Xxxx leave credit will be earned in the following manner for full-time and part-time RNs only, excluding intermittent nurses. A. One hundred twenty (120) hours shall be credited to a yearly sick leave pool as of the first full pay period in January of each year. Nurses who are not in pay status at the beginning of the year will have their sick hours pro-rated based on the percentage of the year missed. Sick time may be accumulated without limitation. Previously accumulated sick leave of employees shall be credited to their sick leave pool. Sick leave hours are pro-rated according to appointment level for part-time nurses. A physician's excuse is required following the fortieth (40th) consecutive hour of sick leave, when the leave is of a duration greater than forty (40) hours. B. If the sick leave pool is exhausted any nurse may retroactively use accrued vacation time in lieu of unpaid sick leave. Section 2. The provisions of this article shall apply to maternity and/or any disability arising therefrom. Sick leave benefit may be utilized for the duration of maternity and/or any resulting physical disability which is validated by a physician's certificate, so long as accrued time is available. When accrued time is not available, unpaid maternity leave is available to allow for a total leave of twelve (12) weeks, including all time taken for child- rearing purposes. Section 3. If a nurse's physical disability continues beyond the time covered by his/her accumulated sick leave, he/she shall be granted a leave of absence without pay for a period up to six (6) months provided there is evidence submitted to the supervisor as to inability to work and the probable date of return. Upon a successful return to work exam and returning from leave, the nurse will be returned to his/her position if it has not been permanently filled; otherwise he/she shall be given whatever work is available for which he/she is qualified and will be given the first opportunity for consideration to return to his/her position when the position is open. Section 4. Disability Leave may be granted instead of unpaid leave of absence, if there is no evidence or probable date of the nurse's return to work, or if an illness or disability continues past expiration of the unpaid leave. A nurse who has been given a Disability Leave shall have the right to be reinstated to the same or similar position he/she held at the time of his/her leave within thirty (30) days after written application for reinstatement and after passing a return to work examination by a licensed physician designated by the Center, showing that he/she has recovered from such disability, provided further that such application for reinstatement be filed within three (3) years from the date of separation, and further provided that such application not be filed after the date of service eligibility retirement. The Center will fill vacancies caused by long-term medical leaves that exist for a period of six (6) months, depending upon staffing needs of the department as determined by Center Administration and the employment availability of qualified registered nurses. This section shall not be construed as restricting Center management from taking appropriate action at an earlier date. Section 5. If a nurse so chooses, he/she may use any earned but unused vacation or compensatory time before being granted a leave of absence without pay. A declaration of intent regarding such usage shall be made prior to the expiration of any accumulated sick leave. Requests to use vacation or compensatory time will not be honored once he/she has been granted an unpaid leave of absence. Section 6. Nurses reinstated to their former position, recalled from layoff or who re-enter Center employment within ten (10) years shall be credited with any accumulated sick leave balance remaining at the end of their previous service. No prior credit is given if the employee was out of service more than ten (10) years, except for military leave. Section 7.
