All full time personnel employed on or after January 1, 1999 will be eligible for terminal sick leave payment for up to one-fourth of unused sick days at the time of termination with a maximum of sixty (60) days providing such personnel have completed at least three (3) years of full time college service. All other bargaining unit members who terminate, except for personnel who are discharged for cause, will be eligible to receive payment for accumulated sick leave based upon the following amounts: (1) After completion of three (3) years of continuous full-time college service until the completion of six (6) years of service, an amount equal to 40 percent of the employee’s daily salary times the number of accumulated sick leave days at the time of termination. (2) After the completion of six (6) years of continuous full-time service, until the completion of nine (9) years of service, an amount equal to 45 percent of the employee’s daily salary times the number of accumulated sick leave at the time of termination. (3) After the completion of nine (9) years of continuous full-time service, an amount equal to 50 percent of the employee’s daily salary times the number of days of accumulated sick leave at the time of termination plus 2.5 percent per year for each additional year of college service up to a maximum accumulation of 100 percent. Such accumulated sick leave may be transferred to another Florida community college, the Florida Department of Education, the Florida University System or a Florida District school board in lieu of receiving the payment indicated above. If service of such a bargaining unit member is terminated by death, the employee’s beneficiary as designated by the employee for retirement purposes will receive such terminal sick leave payment.
