Common use of Leave Workers Compensation Clause in Contracts

Leave Workers Compensation. (a) Entitlement to Leave An employee shall be granted Workers’ Compensation leave with net pay in the event that the Workers’ Compensation Board/WorkSafe determines that the employee has established a claim (time-loss benefits) and they are unable to perform their duties by reason of the compensable injury which occurred while employed by the Employer. For the purposes of this clause, “net pay” is defined as the employee’s regular net take-home wages to ensure that the non-taxable status of Workers’ Compensation benefits does not provide an opportu- nity for an injured worker to earn more while on claim than if they were working. The term claim will not include any form of WCB allowance or pension, and this section will not be oper- ative while an employee is receiving such a different form of payment from WCB arising from this claim. Additional shifts worked by part-time employees, shift and weekend premiums, and statutory holiday premiums (in accor- dance with the three (3) arbitration awards listed below) shall be taken into account when calculating “regular net take- home wages”: • Surrey Memorial Hospital and BCNU; ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇; April 1, 1996. • Peace Arch Hospital and BCNU; ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇; December 2, 1997. • Vancouver Hospital and Health Sciences Centre and BCNU; ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇; January 28, 1998.
