Abuse of Leave If it is found that a leave is not actually being used for the purpose for which it was granted, the Employer may cancel the leave and direct the employee to report for work by giving written notice to the employee.
Use of Leave An employee does not need to use this leave entitlement in one block. Leave can be taken intermittently or on a reduced leave schedule when medically necessary. Employees must make reasonable efforts to schedule leave for planned medical treatment so as not to unduly disrupt the employer’s operations. Leave due to qualifying exigencies may also be taken on an intermittent basis.
Ceremonial Leave An employee who is legitimately required by Aboriginal and Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Islander tradition to be absent from work for Aboriginal and Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Islander ceremonial purposes will be entitled to up to ten working days unpaid leave in any one year, with the approval of the employer.
Special Leaves An employee who is on an approved FMLA leave or on a Voluntary Reduction in Hours as provided elsewhere in this Agreement maintains eligibility for an Employer Contribution.
Special Leave The Employer, in any one year, may grant to an Employee: (a) special leave without pay for such a period as it deems circumstances warrant; (b) special leave with pay for reasons other than those covered by 19.02 to 19.11 inclusive, for such period as it deems circumstances warrant.
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.
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.
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.
General Leave Notwithstanding any provision for leave in this Agreement, the Employer may grant a leave of absence without pay to an employee requesting leave for an emergency or other unusual circumstances. A leave of absence may also be granted for any other reason in which case approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. All requests and approvals for leave shall be in writing. Upon request, the Employer will give reasons orally for withholding approval.
Assault Leave 1. An employee of Alliance City Schools who, without fault, must be absent due to physical disability resulting from an assault which occurs in the course of Board employment while on duty on school grounds during school hours or where required to be in attendance at a school sponsored function shall, after using all or three (3) days of accumulated and unused sick leave, whichever is less, be eligible for assault leave. [When an employee has no accumulated sick leave, three days of sick leave will be advanced.] Assault leave shall be granted for the period of physical disability not to exceed one-hundred eighty (180) school days upon the member's delivering to the Superintendent a signed statement indicating the nature of the injury, the date of its occurrence, the identity of the individual(s) causing the assault and the facts surrounding the assault. If medical attention is required, the member shall supply a certificate from a licensed physician stating the nature of the disability and its anticipated duration. 2. Full payment for assault leave, less Worker's Compensation, shall not exceed the member's per diem rate of pay exclusive of supplementary pay and will not be approved for payment unless and until the statement and certificate, as provided above, are submitted to the Superintendent. Falsification of either the signed statement or a physician's certificate is grounds for suspension or termination of employment under Section 3319.16 of the Ohio Revised Code. 3. Where the member exhausts his/her assault leave, he/she may use sick leave for the period of physical disability. If sick leave and the assault leave provided for herein become exhausted, the member may apply for further assault leave. Whether such additional assault leave is granted shall be determined solely by the Board in its discretion. Where the assaulted member becomes eligible for benefits under the State Teachers' Retirement System because of any disability or because of age or where the member's employment by the Board ceases for any reason whatsoever, this leave provision shall no longer apply and any assault leave payments shall automatically terminate.
