Common use of Donated Time Clause in Contracts

Donated Time. A. All employees of the Employer, including non-bargaining unit personnel, shall be eligible for donated time benefits, subject to the terms of this Section, to relieve hardship resulting from extended illness or Family and Medical Leave. When an employee’s leave time is about to be exhausted, the employee may request to be considered for donated time by submitting a written application to the Director that states: 1. The character of the employee’s or family member’s ailment; and 2. The health care provider’s prognosis. B. The approval of donated time shall be solely at the discretion of the Director. If the Director approves a recommendation for an employee to be a recipient of donated time, s/he shall so inform all employees by memo. Employees may voluntarily donate annual leave, compensatory time, and/or Extended Illness Leave for the benefit of such approved recipient. Time donated must be in one-half (½) hour increments. C. In no case will donated time be used to extend an employee’s period of active duty beyond a recommended retirement date as established by the retirement board physician.
