Assault Leave Any employee who must be absent from his or her duties due to physical disability resulting from an assault by a student or the parent or legal guardian of a student of this system, while on duty and engaged in school- related activities, on or off school premises, before, during or after school hours, will be paid his or her full scheduled compensation for a maximum period of fifteen (15) days. Assault shall be defined as intentional physical touching. If permanently disabled, the employee must apply for disability retirement and no assault leave shall be granted after such retirement has been approved. The period of such absence, as defined in this provision, shall be termed "Assault Leave." Before Assault Leave can be approved, the employee shall furnish to the Superintendent, a written, signed statement describing the circumstances and events surrounding the assault and the cause thereof, including the location and time of the assault, name and address of victims and witnesses, and a description of the injuries sustained by each victim of the assault. If medical attention is required or sought, the employee shall also furnish to the Superintendent a statement of the nature of the disability and its duration, which has been signed by a physician licensed in the State of Ohio. Falsification of either the written signed statement of the events or circumstances surrounding the assault or the physician's statements shall be grounds for suspension or termination of employment. Assault Leave, which is approved by the Superintendent, shall not be charged against sick leave earned or earnable by the employee or any other leave to which the employee is entitled. Assault leave shall be immediately paid to the employee by the district at the employee’s current rate of pay and if Worker’s Compensation is applied for and granted, the employee shall reimburse Springfield City School District at the rate paid by Worker’s Compensation after payment is received from Worker’s Compensation. The Board may require an examination by and a certificate from a licensed physician, chosen and paid by the Board that the employee was disabled from performance of any duties which the employee is qualified to perform and the nature and duration of such disability. The employee is encouraged to file appropriate action against the person committing the assault, including criminal charges or civil action or both, in case of any assault or injuries.
INJURY LEAVE In the event an unusual circumstance exists regarding the original six (6) months of injury leave, and the employee did not use injury leave hours due to the injury or did not lose work time, the Fire Chief with the approval of the Human Resources Director may extend such injury leave. However, under no circumstances shall the total time granted be greater than twelve (12) months of injury leave, or an actual six (6) months of lost work time because of the injury.
Jury Leave Upon written request, supported by a copy of the summons, an employee shall be granted leave paid at the rate of her full salary, less what the court pays for the performance of the required duties, to appear for or serve jury duty, provided that such appearance and/or service actually conflicts with her scheduled duties and provided that upon return to work she shall provide her supervisor with written confirmation of the date(s) and time(s) on which she appeared and/or served, signed by an appropriate official of the Court.
