<br /> ------ <br />SECTION 19-14 EMERGENCY AND FUNERAL LEAVES OF ABSENCE. I <br />In the case of the absence of an employee due to a serious I <br />emergency, including a serious illness of a member of such <br />employee's immediate family but excluding the death of a .. <br />member of such immediate family, the Clerk-Administrator, in <br />his discretion, may authorize use of sick leave benefits up <br />to a maximum of three (3 ) days for each emergency within the <br />limits to which the employee is entitled by their service I <br />credit. <br />In the case of the death of a member of an employee's I <br />immediate family, such employee shall be entitled to three <br />(3) days funeral leave with pay, which funeral leave shall <br />not be credited against such employee's accrued sick leave <br />benefits. I <br />SECTION 19-15 EXTENSION OF LEAVE. <br />In order to receive paid sick leave, an employee must report I <br />as soon as practicable to their supervisor or the Clerk <br />Administrator the reason for such absence; keep their I <br />immediate supervisor informed on a daily basis if the absence <br />exceeds more than three (3 ) work days duration; and submit a <br />medical certificate stating the cause of the employee's <br />absence if required by the Clerk Administrator. I <br />An employee who is eligible to receive sick leave and who is <br />eligible to receive Worker's Compensation payments shall be t# <br />granted accrued sick leave pay only in the amount of the <br />difference between the employee's regular salary and the <br />Worker's Compensation payments. An employee cannot receive <br />more than their normal take home pay as a result of any city I <br />pay supplement to Worker's Compensation benefits. <br />The Council may, in its discretion, grant additional sick I <br />leave pay to an employee in the event the Council finds that <br />extension of the normal sick leave allowance is justified <br />because of hardship to the employee. The Council shall I <br />determine the existence of the hardship, which determination <br />shall be final. In addition to the particular hardship, the <br />Council shall consider the length of service of the employee, I <br />and emergency extensions of the sick leave allowance shall <br />not be granted unless the employee has been in the employ of <br />the city at least one calendar year, whether part-time or <br />full-time. The Council shall also determine in the I <br />particular case whether such emergency sick leave as may be <br />granted shall be charged against later accumulations of sick <br />leave by the employee. I <br />SECTION 19-16 MILITARY LEAVE. <br />Military leaves of absence and re-employment rights of I <br />employees returning from active service with the Armed Forces <br />shall be subject to applicable Federal and State legislation. .. <br /> -12- <br /> I <br />_n_ <br />
