Accrual and Procedures. The availability of the sick leave buyback program described herein is subject to approval on a yearly basis by the Village Manager. Availability is determined by the financial condition of the Village to provide this program, as determined by the Village Manager. This program is administered on a Village-wide basis; the program will be available to all Village employees or none. The Village will identify each fiscal year (by October 1) if the program will be in place for that year. Each employee shall earn sick leave with pay at a rate of approximately 3.69 hours per pay period, equal to twelve (12) sick days per year. Prior to February 1 of each year, the Village shall calculate how many sick days above sixty (60) days have been credited to and remain unused by an employee as of December 31 of the previous year. If, between December 31 of the previous year and January 15 following, the employee shall have notified his Department Director and the Finance Department in writing on forms provided and has indicated thereon his desire to continue to accumulate such additional days above sixty (60), then such employee shall be allowed to accumulate those additional days up to the allowed maximum. Prior to May 1 of each year, the Village shall compensate the employee at the rate of fifty percent (50%) of the present years’ time accumulated; provided that the employee had sixty (60) days accrued as of January 1 of the year. Up to fifty percent (50%) of those sick days accrued in that following year would be compensated. Unused sick leave may accumulate up to a maximum number of two hundred-and-forty (240) days. Any uncompensated days may be converted at retirement as additional time in the IMRF system. Employees other than 24/48 shift personnel accrue sick days initially at the rate of 1 sick day for each month worked up to a maximum of 12 sick days per year. The employee may accumulate these sick days for an indefinite period; however, the maximum number of sick days is not to exceed 240 Days. Sick leave can be taken in one-hour increments.
