Disability Leave a. An employee who has suffered possible injury in the performance of assigned duties shall immediately undergo such medical examination as the appointing authority deems necessary. He/she shall not be considered absent from duty during the time required for such examination.
Disability Leave. Disability leave may be a combination of the employee’s accrued sick time off, vacation time off, personal holiday, compensatory time, and/or unpaid time off, the combination of which may be determined by the employee. If disability leave is taken as an unpaid absence, the employee may apply eight (8) hours of accrued paid time off per month during at least the first four (4) months of disability leave to provide for continuation of employer paid health benefits. The interspersed paid time off will be applied to the first working day of the month.
Disability Leave. All employees who are not eligible for federal or state Family and Medical Leave, or have exhausted the maximum time available, are eligible for disability leave for recovery from bona fide disabling illnesses or injuries. This includes all on- and off-the-job illnesses and injuries. Except as otherwise allowed by law, disability leaves will be administered in accordance with the Company’s Leaves of Absence Policy. Employees on disability leave may qualify for benefits under several Company plans (PTO/Vacation, Workers’ Compensation, Short-Term Disability, Long-Term Disability) subject to all of the policies and rules governing eligibility and use of such benefits.
Disability Leave. Disability leave may be a combination of the employee’s accrued sick leave, vacation leave, personal holiday, compensatory time, and/or leave without pay, the combination of which may be determined by the employee. If disability leave is taken as leave without pay, the employee may apply eight (8) hours of accrued paid leave per month during the nine (9) months of disability leave to provide for continuation of employer paid health benefits. The interspersed paid leave will be applied to the first working day of the month. Periods of disability leave covered by the FMLA shall be deducted from the nine (9) month period of eligibility to intersperse paid leave.
Disability Leave. An employee who sustains a job-related disability and is eligible for disability leave with pay under the provisions of Rule 60L-34, Florida Administrative Code, shall be carried in full-pay status for up to 40 work hours immediately following the onset of the injury without being required to use accrued leave.
Disability Leave. (1) Disability leave shall be granted for a reasonable period to a permanent employee who is precluded from performing his/her job duties because of a disability (including those related to pregnancy or childbirth). Disability leave includes a serious health condition of the employee as provided in the federal Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993. (FMLA) Leave for disability due to pregnancy or childbirth is in addition to twelve (12) weeks under either the FMLA and/ or the Washington State Family Leave Act (RCW 49.78).
Disability Leave. After the exhaustion of paid sick leave, a disability leave of absence will be granted to employees who are unable to continue to work for the Employer because of a non-work related injury, illness, or other disability. The Employer may require a physician’s certificate establishing that the employee is incapacitated from the safe performance of work due to illness, injury, or other disability. A disability leave shall be without pay or benefits. The disability leave will continue for the period of the employee’s disability or the end of the school year, whichever is earlier. At the completion of this initial school year, the Employer may grant an extension of the leave for up to an additional twelve (12) months if the employee can present evidence from their treating physician that there is a substantial likelihood that the employee will be able to return to work during the period of extended leave. An employee whose leave ends prior to their being able to return to work will be considered to be on layoff with rights to return in accordance with the recall procedure. The Employer may request at reasonable times proof of a continuing disability. In situations where the employee’s condition raises a question as to the employee’s capacity to perform the job, the Employer may require a medical examination by a physician chosen by the Employer at the Employer’s expense. Employees are required to provide notice of intent to utilize disability leave at such time as their physician verifies the need for the leave. In the event that the physician selected by the Employer is considered by the Union to be inappropriate for the particular employee, the parties shall meet to select an alternative physician. All employees returning to work from a disability leave of absence must present a satisfactory physician’s certificate indicating the employee is medically able to return to work.
Disability Leave.

Disability Leave. An unpaid disability leave of up to eighteen (18) months shall be granted to an employee whose disability extends beyond the six (6) month unpaid medical leave of absence. However, an unpaid disability leave of up to twenty-four (24) months shall be granted instead of a medical leave if there is no evidence of the probable date of the employee's return to work. The University shall require that a physical examination be conducted by a licensed physician designated by University Health Services when an employee is to go on disability leave. The cost of this examination shall be paid by the University. This requirement may be waived if the employee is hospitalized or institutionalized at the time of request for disability leave. At the time of return the employee must provide a certificate from the attending physician stating the employee is able to resume all work duties. The employee must present the certificate to the supervisor before the employee begins work. An employee who is off work due to a disability leave shall be required to be seen by University Health Services before returning to work. An employee who has been on disability leave shall have the right to be returned to work to the same or similar position held at the time of the leave within thirty (30) days after written application for return to work provided that a vacancy exists in the employee's classification. The employee may also request a position in a lower or dissimilar classification and such vacancy shall be offered when a vacancy occurs as long as the employee is qualified to perform the work. The employee may be required to take an examination to demonstrate her qualifications and such examination shall be provided. If none exists, the employee will be laid off and eligible for recall pursuant to Article 13. Application for reinstatement must be filed within eighteen (18) months of the effective date of the unpaid disability leave or within twenty-four (24) months of the effective date of the unpaid medical leave if granted before the disability leave. In no event shall the combined total of unpaid medical and disability leaves exceed twenty-four (24) months.
