12*2Q11 -------- Deleted: w.09 <br />A) When an Employee is unable, due to temporarily disability, to provide full <br />performance of all work duties assigned to the Employee's job classification, <br />the Employee may request light duty by completing the Request for Light <br />Duty form and submitting it to his /her Department Head. The request shall <br />state the nature and extent of the temporary disability and the job duties <br />which the Employee is unable to perform, along with the expected length of <br />the disability and any work restrictions related to the disability. The City will <br />usually require the request to be accompanied by a physician's report <br />containing diagnosis, current treatment, and physician approval for light duty <br />assignment with any restrictions thereon. <br />B) The City may require an independent evaluation conducted by a physician <br />selected by the City to verify the diagnosis, current treatment, work <br />restrictions and expected length of disability. <br />C) Determinations regarding light duty will be made on a department-by- <br />department, case -by -case basis. The Department Head, in consultation with <br />the City Administrator, will consider such factors as public service needs and <br />budgetary considerations, the need for work which may be assigned as light <br />duty, the Employee's capability of performing the work, the number of <br />Employees not available for work due to injury or illness, and other relevant <br />factors. <br />D) The City will determine what job duties the Employee will perform. These <br />duties may include those currently assigned to the Employee's job <br />classification or any other duties the City considers to be appropriate. <br />Duration of light duty will be determined at the sole discretion of the City. <br />E) Assignments to light duty will be reviewed on a monthly basis or more often <br />as deemed necessary by the City. The City, in its sole discretion, reserves the <br />tight to terminate a light duty assignment at any time based upon, but not <br />limited to, the factors set forth in sub -item C) above. <br />--- -----. - _...------------ <br />il.
