his daily duties, or as may be specified by the Department Head. When absence is for more than three work days, the employee shall file a physician's certificate or a personal affidavit with the Personnel Officer, stating the cause of the absence. C. Family Attendance Employees shall have the option of using sick leave for attendance to family members, or the employee may elect to take leave without pay for attendance to family members. Family members is defined in the City's personnel rules as employee's father, father-in-law, mother, mother-in-law, brother, brother-in-law, sister, sister-in-law, wife, husband, child, grandparent or grandchild. D. Accumulated Hours at Termination Except as otherwise herein stated, accumulated sick leave is lost when the employee is terminated. In no event shall employees who have not worked for the City as regular full-time salaried employees for more than five years be entitled to use sick leave to defer termination of their employment by the City nor shall they be compensated for sick leave upon such termination for any reason including but not limited to retirement. A full-time employee who is permanently disabled from performing the duties of the position shall be retired upon that fact being established. In the event such employee applies for and consents to such retirement, then upon the retirement being accomplished, the employee shall be compensated for his/her accumulated unused sick leave (if and only if he/she has five years of regular paid City service) by payment in a lump sum. That sum is determined as follows: The number of days of sick leave accrued, multiplied by his/her gross daily earnings at the time of termination, multiplied by a percentage as follows: If employed more than five years, but less than ten -10% If employed ten years, but less than fifteen -25% If employed fifteen years or more -50% A regular salaried full-time employee who has worked for the City at least five years and has accumulated sick leave who terminates his/her employment for any reason shall be paid as full compensation for such sick leave as computed in the above paragraph. Full-time members who are granted a service retirement (rather than disability retirement) shall be provided a sum equal to the cash value of 75% of the employee's accumulated sick leave after 20 cumulative years of service with the City. The cash value shall be computed at the employee's hourly rate in existence at the time the monies are disbursed. GEN MOU - 1993 GR1:KD 062493 -16-
