Use of Bank Leave Days. Use of Sick Leave Bank days will be on a daily use basis; e.g., each eligible employee will draw each day until the total Bank Leave days have been exhausted. An eligible employee is one who has timely volunteered for participation in the Sick Leave Bank and is absent at least 10 days as a result of the same serious health condition and has exhausted his/her personal Sick Leave without being eligible for long term disability, workers’ compensation, and/or social security disability. Use of the Sick Leave Bank shall be limited to those absences where the treating physician verifies the serious health condition. The Sick Leave Bank may not be used for standard pregnancy related absences, but may be used for complications during an employee’s pregnancy and/or delivery. An employee who qualifies for Sick Leave Bank and returns to work may be eligible for additional Bank days later in the year. Additional Bank days may be authorized by the district for an absence related to the original qualifying serious health condition. A statement from the treating physician will be required for additional Bank days. Bank grants will not automatically be carried over from one contract year to another. All Bank grants will end June 30 or the last regular duty day of the contract year, whichever is sooner. Additional Rules as determined pursuant to Article VI, Section G:
