The Committee shall require proof of illness or a statement from the physician at the time of application and from time to time after a grant has been made. The employee who is physically incapable of completing his/her job shall secure written proof of illness adequate to protect the District against malingering and false claims of illness as provided by Idaho Code : 33-1216, 33-1217, 33-1218.
