Paid Sick Leave For those jurisdictions that have passed or will pass legislation requiring Paid Sick Leave, Paid Sick Time will be billed back to Client at the straight-time bill rate for all hours taken by any Consultant assigned to Client. This section is not applicable until the effective date of such legislation has been reached.
Holidays Worked When an employee works on a calendar holiday, he/she shall receive payment of the holiday at the regular rate and in addition, at the discretion of the Employer, (1) be paid at the rate of time and one half for hours actually worked on the holiday or (2) be given compensatory time off equal to one and one half the number of hours actually worked.
Vacations and Sick Leave The Executive shall be entitled to paid annual vacation leave in accordance with the policies as established from time to time by the Board of Directors, which shall in no event be less than four weeks per annum. The Executive shall also be entitled to an annual sick leave benefit as established by the Board for senior management employees of the Bank. The Executive shall not be entitled to receive any additional compensation from the Bank for failure to take a vacation or sick leave, nor shall he be able to accumulate unused vacation or sick leave from one year to the next; provided, however, such Executive may carry forward from year to year a maximum of ten days of unused vacation leave.
Sick Leave Abuse When the Employer suspects sick leave abuse, the employee will be provided the opportunity to explain the circumstances surrounding their sick leave use prior to disciplining the employee, or making reference to sick leave use in the employee’s performance evaluation. The Employer may not adopt or enforce any policy that counts the use of paid sick leave time as an absence that may lead to or result in disciplinary action for an authorized purpose. The Employer may not discriminate or retaliate against an employee for the use of paid sick leave for an authorized purpose.
Use of Sick Leave Sick leave is available the first day of the pay period following the pay period in which it was earned, and is taken in units of one-tenth (1/10) of one hour. Use of sick leave is subject to the approval of the appointing authority. Upon request of an employee, the appointing authority may allow the substitution of three (3) or more days of sick leave for paid vacation, provided the employee furnishes a doctor's statement or other satisfactory evidence that the employee was ill or injured for three (3) or more consecutive days.
Sick Leave Policy It is the policy of the State of Ohio to not unreasonably deny sick leave to employees when requested. It is also the policy of the State to take corrective action for unauthorized use of sick leave and/or abuse of sick leave. It is further the policy of the State that when corrective and/or disciplinary action is taken, it will be applied progressively and consistently. It is the desire of the State of Ohio that when discipline is applied it will serve the purpose of correcting the performance of the employee.
EMPLOYEE WORK YEAR 9.1 The work year shall be as follows:
HOLIDAY COMPENSATION FOR TIME WORKED 110. Employees required by their respective appointing officers to work on any of the above specified or substitute holidays, excepting Fridays observed as holidays in lieu of holidays falling on Saturday, shall be paid extra compensation of one additional day's pay at time-and-one-half the usual rate in the amount of 12 hours pay for 8 hours worked or a proportionate amount for less than 8 hours worked provided, however, that at the employee's request and with the approval of the appointing officer, an employee may be granted compensatory time off in lieu of paid overtime pursuant to the provisions of Section III.E.2. 111. Executive, administrative and professional employees designated in the Annual Salary Ordinance with the "Z" symbol shall not receive extra compensation for holiday work but may be granted time off equivalent to the time worked at the rate of-one-and-one-half times for work on the holiday.
Sick Leave Provisions The Employer will provide sick leave credits for the sole and exclusive purpose of protecting employees against loss of income during periods of legitimate illness. At the beginning of each fiscal year (April 1) full-time employees who have successfully completed their probationary or trial period are credited with ninety (90) hours of sick time credits to be paid at one-hundred percent (100%) of their normal earnings. New full-time employees will be allocated sick time credits pro-rated to the date they successfully complete their probationary or trial period. Sick leave credits have no value upon termination of employment and cannot be carried over from one fiscal year to the next. Any employee absenting herself on account of illness, regardless of whether she qualifies for sick leave pay under this Article, subject to extenuating circumstances, shall be required to speak directly with her supervisor or designate prior to the commencement of her shift, and in any event no later than two (2) hours prior to the normal commencement of her shift. An employee may be required to submit a medical certificate with respect to any period of time the employee is absent due to illness for more than three (3) consecutive days. It is understood that the Employer may request a medical certificate from employees to cover any absence due to illness, where a pattern of absence so warrants. In the case of longer absences, the employee must keep his/her supervisor informed at two (2) week intervals of his/her progress and expected date of return to work. Employees are expected to notify their supervisor as early as possible of their expected date of return to work. All employees returning to work after any absence due to illness or injury may be requested to present proof of fitness to return to work in the form of medical documentation from a physician or nurse practitioner. The cost of any medical certificate required will be paid by the employee. Employees are expected to participate in the Employer’s return to work program. A statutory or other declared holiday falling within the sick leave period shall not be charged against the sick leave credits. When and employee’s illness continues beyond their sick leave credits, the sequence shall be as follows: (a) The employee uses up all sick time credits; (b) The employee is placed on a Leave of Absence without pay. The employee is issued a Record of Employment and may apply for Employment Insurance Sick Benefits. While on EI, Community Living will supplement these benefits to eighty percent (80%) of the employee’s regular wages. (c) The employee makes application for long term disability coverage through the benefit plan of the Employer.
Abuse of Sick Leave Misuse of leave, violation of orders, directives, or contractual requirements concerning the use of sick leave and other forms of leave used in lieu of sick leave are cause for disciplinary action.
