Successive Periods of Disability. If an employee who has returned to active work again becomes disabled within six consecutive months of the first disability and if such disability results from the same cause as the previous disability or from related causes, there is considered to be a continuation of the previous disability. During the elimination period, successive periods of disability from a single cause separated by up to fifteen days will be combined. However, if the employee who has returned to active work again becomes disabled due to an illness or accidental injury totally unrelated to the previous cause of disability, there is considered to be a new disability and a new elimination period, as outlined above, will apply. Medical Appointments: Appointments with doctors, doctor-prescribed physiotherapists and dentists and other such personal care appointments for an employee or the employee's children, spouse or parent for whom the employee is directly responsible, should, whenever possible, be scheduled outside of office hours. However, no reduction of salary will be effected where time used for such appointments does not exceed an accumulative maximum of twenty two (22) hours per calendar year. At the Society's discretion, additional paid time may be authorized by the employee's supervisor, where required due to exceptional circumstances and where requested in advance. If an employee is too ill to return to work for the balance of the day following an appointment, then the time off is to be counted as sick leave. If the length of time required to travel to and from or to undergo a personal care appointment is such that the absence from the workplace exceeds the two (2) hour limit, the employee shall have the option of working outside their regularly scheduled hours in order to make up the time, provided that the time must be made up within the next ten (10) working days following the medical appointment and provided that it is agreed that no overtime will be generated by virtue of working such make-up time, over and above their normal work week.
