Chronic condition. If an employee is disabled because of a chronic, serious medical condition that requires planned out (but not consecutive) absences – for example, dialysis – such employee will only have to satisfy one waiting period (eighty hours) per year for absences caused by such condition. To be eligible under this provision, the employee’s treatment plan must be submitted and approved by Occupational Health Services.
