Personal/Religious Leave Sample Clauses

The Personal/Religious Leave clause allows employees to take time off from work for personal reasons or to observe religious practices and holidays. Typically, this clause outlines the process for requesting such leave, any notice requirements, and whether the leave is paid or unpaid. Its core function is to accommodate employees' personal and religious needs, promoting inclusivity and compliance with anti-discrimination laws.
Personal/Religious Leave. Up to three (3) days of personal leave with pay may be taken by full-time members within each calendar year. Members who desire such leave are required, except in an emergency, to inform the department Chairperson in advance. Personal leave of absence days not taken in the calendar year in which they are granted shall not be accumulated. In order to meet religious obligations, leave in excess of the three (3) personal days may be taken without loss of pay if the department Chairperson is satisfied that the member’s responsibilities will be met in some other reasonable manner.

Personal/Religious Leave. Personal leave will only be granted for circumstances which cannot be performed at a time other than time school is in session. Personal Leave may not be used or construed to facilitate any organized type of work stoppage. Personal leave may not be used the day prior to winter break or spring break. An appeal for either the day prior to winter break or spring break may be granted upon approval of the Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources. Personal leave may not be taken during the first 5 (five) days of student attendance. Extenuating circumstances may be appealed to the Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources. It is the teacher’s responsibility to verify that they have a personal day prior to entering the absence in the sub system and taking the day. If the personal day is taken, and the teacher has no remaining days, then the teacher will be docked at teacher’s per diem daily rate. The teacher must phone the sub system to report an absence for personal leave. If these days are not used, they are accrued as sick days. Teachers will receive twelve (12) days (ten sick days and two personal/emergency days) per year. If the two personal/emergency days are not used within the school year, they may accumulate to a total of four personal days. Any personal days beyond four will accumulate as sick days. Additional days may be taken from accrued sick leave with approval from Human Resources. In addition to the twelve days given per year, each teacher will receive two additional days which may only be used for religious observance. If the two days of religious observance are not used, they will not accumulate. Days used for religious observance will not affect the ability to qualify for perfect attendance days. Additional days for religious observance, beyond the initial two days, will be taken from the employee’s accumulated personal leave days.
