▇▇▇▇ Leave For laid off employees, sick leave accruals shall remain on the books and be reinstated if such employees are re-appointed. Whenever a person becomes ineligible for re-employment and such person has not been re-employed, then, if at the point of layoff, such person was eligible to receive a sick leave accrual payoff, such person shall be paid for existing sick leave accruals in accordance with Item 12 of the Ventura County Firemen's Association 1976-1978 Memorandum of Understanding.
FMLA Leave The Board agrees to comply with the Family and Medical Leave Act and agrees that any policy adopted to implement the FMLA shall in no way reduce or adversely impact any other provision of this Agreement.
Special Leave The Employer, in any one year, may grant to an Employee:
(a) special leave without pay for such a period as it deems circumstances warrant;
(b) special leave with pay for reasons other than those covered by 19.02 to 19.11 inclusive, for such period as it deems circumstances warrant.
Civic Leave Civic leave is provided to faculty members who are a) subpoenaed to appear before any court or other legally constituted body authorized to compel the attendance of witnesses, where the employee is not a party to the action; or b) summoned for jury duty by any court of competent jurisdiction. Faculty members required to report or serve for only part of a day for court or jury duty are obligated to return for the remainder of that day unless otherwise authorized by the Chair. Faculty members are required to provide written notification of civic leave to the Chair as far in advance of the leave as possible. Documentation regarding the leave (e.g., a copy of the summons, subpoena) shall be attached to the notification. The faculty member may retain any money received as compensation or expense reimbursement for jury duty or court attendance compelled by the summons or subpoena.
Assault Leave 1. A Bargaining Unit Member who is required to be absent due to physical or mental disability resulting from an assault, which occurs in the course of Board employment while on duty on school grounds during school hours or where required to be in attendance at a school-sponsored function, shall receive assault leave. If such leave extends beyond five (5) days, the Bargaining Unit Member may be required to be evaluated by a licensed professional appointed by and paid for by the Board. The Board shall be entitled only to a simple certification of disability as a result of said examination. Upon determination of eligibility by the Board, such leave shall be granted for a period not to exceed one hundred eighty- four (184) school days upon the Bargaining Unit Member's delivering to the Treasurer a signed statement, unless unable to sign, on forms prescribed by the Board of Education and maintained by the Treasurer.
2. Such statements will indicate the nature of the injury, the date of its occurrence, the identity of individual(s) causing the assault, if known, the facts surrounding the assault and the willingness of the Bargaining Unit Member to participate and cooperate with the Board in pursuing legal action against the assailant(s). If medical attention is required, the Bargaining Unit Member shall supply a certificate from a licensed physician stating the nature of the disability and its duration. Need for absence because of assault may also be verified by a Board appointed physician.
3. Full payment for assault leave, less worker's compensation and any other financial remuneration, shall not exceed the Bargaining Unit Member's per diem rate of pay and will not be approved for payment unless and until the form and certificate, as provided above, are supplied to the Treasurer. A Bargaining Unit Member absent from work because of an assault shall not be gainfully employed elsewhere. Falsification of either the signed statement or a physician's certificate is grounds for suspension or termination of employment under Ohio Revised Code Section 3319.16 Where the assaulted Bargaining Unit Member becomes eligible for benefits under the State Bargaining Unit Members Retirement System because of any disability or because of age, or where the Bargaining Unit Member's employment by this district ceases, this leave provision shall no longer apply.
