A “family member” is defined as a child, parent, spouse, registered domestic partner, child of a registered domestic partner, grandparent, grandchild, or sibling. Up to half (1/2) of an employee’s annual sick leave accruals per calendar year may be used as family sick leave. A certificate from an attending physician stating the expected duration of the family member's illness may be required. Authorization to use additional sick leave for family illness beyond the maximums identified above may be granted by the City Manager or designee when, in the City Manager’s or designee’s judgment, circumstances warrant the same.

Sick leave may also be taken for specified purposes by employees who are the victim of domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. No sick leave accruals will be credited in advance. No sick leave will be earned while on an unpaid leave. If sick leave is used for purposes that qualify under a state or federal leave law, such as Family Medical Leave Act/California Family Rights or Pregnancy Disability Leave, then any sick leave used will count towards the state or federal leave entitlement.
