ARTICLE 18

EMPLOYEE LEAVE TIME

I. Illness, Injury and Pregnancy Leave

A. In the event an employee is unable to meet employment obligations because of illness, injury or pregnancy, the employee will, when possible, notify the appropriate immediate supervisor (or employing unit designee) as promptly as possible so that arrangements for the absence can be made by the employing unit.

B. During illness, injury or pregnancy, the employing unit shall adjust (reduce, waive or reschedule) the employee’s duties as those duties and his/her physical circumstances reasonably dictate. If total absence from duties becomes necessary and the employee is still enrolled, the employing unit shall maintain the stipend of the appointment provided for a period of two (2) months or to the end of the appointment period, whichever occurs first. Additional unpaid leave may be arranged on an ad hoc basis.

C. The employee shall have the right to return to employment, within the dates of the current appointment, at such time as he/she is able to resume duties.

II. Bereavement Leave

Employees will receive up to three (3) days of bereavement leave with pay following the death of an immediate family member. Additional time may be granted.

III. Adoption and Parental Leave

An employee who adopts a child shall be entitled to adoption leave of up to two (2) months without pay to commence on or before the date of adoption as determined by the employee. An employee who becomes a father by birth shall be entitled to parental leave of up to two (2) months without pay to commence on or before the date of birth as determined by the employee. Additional unpaid leave may be arranged on an ad hoc basis.

IV. Jury Duty

Should jury duty or subpoenaed court testimony result in a loss of pay for an employee, he/she will be compensated for the difference between pay for the jury duty and his/her salary rate. An employee is expected to report to work when temporarily excused from attendance in court.
