– EXTENDED ILLNESS HOURS. A. Extended illness hours (EIH) shall be taken for regularly scheduled shifts which are missed due to bereavement, illness or disability (exceptions shall be allowed in accordance with Hospital policy, provided the exception benefits the employee). EIH shall be used after an employee has been ill or disabled for three consecutive workdays or 24 work hours, whichever comes first (for employees working 12-hour shifts, after two consecutive workdays or 24 work hours, whichever comes first). If an employee is hospitalized, then EIH shall be used starting with the first day of hospitalization. If an employee is required to leave work because of a job-related illness or injury which is subsequently covered by workers’ compensation, the employee may request that any PTO used for work missed because of the job-related illness or injury covered by workers’ compensation be restored to the employee’s PTO bank and instead deducted from the employee’s available EIH bank. EIH shall be used for a death in the immediate family, without a PTO waiting period, to a maximum of three scheduled workdays. Immediate family is defined to be spouse, children and others residing as part of the household or parents, brothers, sisters, grandparents, grandchildren or current in-laws.
