Applications for SLB Days Clause Samples

Applications for SLB Days. (a) Written Application. A SLB member or a representative authorized by and acting for a SLB member may apply for SLB days. The written application shall be supported by a healthcare provider's statement stating the need for SLB leave and describing the member's inability to work and the number of SLB days requested. An opinion from a second healthcare provider (a “second opinion”) may be sought by the SLB Committee for any SLB request. The cost of the second opinion will be covered by the Corporation. (b) Vote of the SLB Committee. Days from the SLB may be granted only upon authorization by a simple majority of the SLB Committee. The Chair of the SLB Committee shall be responsible for convening the SLB Committee to consider applications for SLB days and shall report the decision of the SLB Committee to the applicant and the Superintendent. (c) Individual Sick Leave/PTO Days Must Be Used First. The applicant must use all of his/her own sick leave days before a SLB day may be applied to the member's absence; this includes any sick leave days accumulated through employment by another school corporation, even those not yet transferred over.
