SICKNESS AND DEATH LEAVE The objective of this section is to provide orderly methods of furthering the health and safety of City government employees and aiding employees to do better work. Sick leave, under this rule, is not a right which an employee can use at his discretion, but a privilege which can be allowed only in case of necessity and actual sickness or injury or serious illness of immediate family members which compel an employee to be absent from work. (a) Computation of Sick Leave: Sick leave with pay is cumulative at the rate of 3.68 (fire suppression personnel 5.52) working hours for each biweekly pay period of service, twelve days annually, beginning at the time of full-time probationary employment. A person who has held a position with temporary or interim status and is appointed to a position with probationary status, without a break in service, may have such time credlted to sick leave upon the recommendation of the department head and Director of Personnel and the approval of the City Manager. (1) Unused sick leave may be accumulated in an unlimited amount. (2) The smallest unit of time chargeable for sick leave benefits is one hour. (3) Absence for illness may not be charged to sick leave not already accumulated. (4) Sick leave reimbursement: a. Employees using four (4) days of sick leave, or less, during the fiscal year, shall have the option of convert- ing twenty-flue percent (25%) of their remaining yearly sick leave to pay. If the pay option is not selected, all remaining yearly sick leave shall be carried over and accumulated. b. Pay shall be computed based on the following schedule and all computations shall be rounded to the nearest whole hour: Remaining Yearly Sick Leave Pay Option (25%) 12 days 3 days 11 days 2 days, 6 hrs. 10 days 2 days, 4 hrs. 9 days 2 days, 2 hrs. 8 days 2 days 7 or lees 0 i"76 37 (Example: Employee has 11 days, 5 hours remaining yearly sick leave; therefore, 93 hours x .25 ~ 23.25 hours ~ 23 hours of pay). c. If the pay option is selected, the paid sick leave hours shall be subtracted from the employees accumulated yearly sick leave balance. The remaining sick leave hours shall be carried over and accumulated. (Example: Employee uses 4 days sick leave. He then elects to receive pay for 25% of remaining days, or 2 days. The 2 days are subtracted from his remaining yearly sick leave and the other 6 days are added to the employee's accumulated sick leave balance). d. Payment will be made during the month of July of each year. Pay will be computed based on the employees salary step on June 30. e. Payment will be made to an employee hired during the fiscal year provided he is on the payroll June 30. Permanent employees who retire during the fiscal year will be compensated under this plan based on their formal retirement date. Payment will not be made to an employee who terminates during the fiscal year. How- ever, in the event of the death of an individual while employed by the City, 50% of the employee's unused accumulated sick leave will be paid to his beneficiary. f.
