Sick Leave. 21.01 22.01 Sick leave is defined as the period of time an Employee is absent from work with full pay, as addressed in this Article, by reason of being sick or disabled, exposed to contagious disease or because of an accident for which compensation is not payable under the Workers’ Compensation Act or during the waiting period prior to receiving coverage under the Comprehensive Insurance Medical Plan.
22.02 The Employer and the Union recognize that the abuse of the sick leave provisions is counter-productive, lowers morale, increases tension in the work place, leads to increased work load on managers and co- workers, and may lead to increased incidents of accidents in the work place. Abuse of sick leave is also theft. The ultimate cost of abuse of sick leave is carried by us all. The abuse of sick leave occurs when the Employee stays away from work under the guise of being sick or injured when in fact they could have worked even though they:
a) did not feel like it that day;
b) were a little under the weather but not really debilitated that much that they could not have worked;
c) were not feeling well enough to work because of personal activity the previous day or night that caused them to become ill;
d) had personal errands or activities that could not be accommodated unless a half (.5) or full day was taken; When the suspicion that abuse of sick leave provisions exists, the Employer:
i) shall investigate any alleged abuse of the sick leave provisions. The Employer agrees to advise the Employee and the Union of such investigation and
ii) the Employer may do the following, in no particular order, and not limited to: • interviewing the Employee about the perceived problem; • contacting individuals who may be able to confirm the suspicions; • writing a letter of warning to the Employee; • sending a medical practitioner to the Employees residence on the day or days of the alleged sickness or injury after informing the Employee that such a visit shall occur; • requiring the Employee to report to their personal physician on the day of the alleged sickness or injury; • the Employee will advise their personal physician that they may be required to consult with the Employer’s Company Doctor. Also the Employee may be required to report to the Employer’s Company Doctor. Action such as the above is not conducive to the trust required to achieve a good and sincere Employee/Employer relationship. It is truly believed that Employee behaviour will not be such that suspicions of abuse of sick leave occur. It is hoped that Employees and the Employer will endeavour to enshrine the trust required in a good Employer/Employee relationship and will not attempt to violate this trust unnecessarily, unknowingly or maliciously. It is understood that investigations may occur but will only be done as required. The Employer and the Union acknowledge that unforeseen circumstances arise and that the Employee may feel that they require time off. If the need arises for time off that is not sick leave then the use of “Special Leave”, “Leave of Absence” or “Vacation Time” is appropriate. The Employer will approve such requests if: • it is arranged in advance, if possible; • taken at a mutually agreed time between managers, Employees and co-workers; • deemed appropriate upon the nature of the request. The Employer is not obliged to approve such requests but shall make every effort to accommodate reasonable requests. In investigating suspected cases of abuse of sick leave, the Employer will follow the provisions stated above, in Clause 22.02 and Article 11.
iii) may require the Employee to take professional counselling
