Classified Unit Member Catastrophic Leave Bank Clause Samples

The Classified Unit Member Catastrophic Leave Bank clause establishes a pooled reserve of leave days contributed by classified employees, intended to support members who experience serious health conditions or emergencies that exhaust their own leave balances. Typically, employees may voluntarily donate a portion of their accrued leave to the bank, and those facing catastrophic illness or injury can apply to draw from it after meeting certain eligibility criteria. This clause provides a safety net for employees in dire circumstances, ensuring they have continued income during extended absences and promoting solidarity among staff.
