D. Accumulated Sick Leave at Termination of Employee 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 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. An 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 then ten - 10i If employed more then ten years, but less then fifteen - 25% If employed more than fifteen years - 50% A regular salaried 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. Members of the Electrical Unit who are granted a service retirement (rather than disability retirement) shall be provided a sum equal to the cash value of 751 of the employee's accumulated sick leave after 30 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. Section 4: Bereavement Leave Up to 80 hours per calendar year may be taken with pay as bereavement leave in the case of the death of the eligible employee's father, father-in-law, mother, mother-in-law, brother, brother-in-law, sister, sister-in-law, wife, husband, child, grandchild, grandparent or grandparent of spouse. The maximum time allowed for such death is 30 hours when such death occurs in Southern California, and 40 hours if outside of Southern California. These hours shall not be eligible to be carried ELECMOU - 1993 GRJ:KD 071493 12
