Common use of Timely Enrollment Clause in Contracts

Timely Enrollment. Employees must be enrolled in the Sick Leave Bank within their first thirty (30) days of employment in a covered position. For the 2017-2018 contract year only, and on a one time basis, eligible employees can join the sick leave bank within 30 calendar days after the last party votes to ratify the successor contract. The eligible employee shall be responsible for contacting the Personnel Office to sign up for the sick leave bank. a. Employees who fail to enroll in the Sick Leave Bank in a timely manner (i.e., within thirty (30) days from date of eligibility) will be prohibited from joining the Sick Leave Bank at a subsequent time. b. For purposes of indicating a desire to enroll, the date starting the thirty (30) day enrollment period shall be the employee’s first day of uninterrupted work in a covered position, or the date of Board of Education action, whichever is later. c. An employee who is ineligible to participate in the Classified Sick Leave Bank because the employee failed to enroll in a timely manner will not become eligible upon changing to another covered position. For example: If an employee is hired by the District as a cafeteria worker and elects not to enroll in the Sick Leave Bank, the employee will not be entitled to enroll in the Sick Leave Bank within thirty (30) days of becoming a custodian. d. However, if an employee has a break-in-service, the employee is not precluded from joining the Sick Leave Bank, provided the employee enrolls within thirty (30) days of their re-employment with the District.
