Implementation Procedures. i. Each catastrophic leave shall conclude after 45 workdays, or at the end of the unit members work year, or when the unit member returns to work, whichever event occurs first. If the same or another injury or illness continues or arises at a later time, another request for catastrophic leave may be submitted, subject to the limitations in Section F. ii. ii. Except in exceptional and highly unusual circumstances, as determined by the Catastrophic Leave Committee, the total amount of catastrophic leave received for any single illness or injury shall not exceed 180 days. Catastrophic leave is not meant to replace the District’s disability pay program. Catastrophic leave may be used prior to using the disability pay program. iii. A unit member who uses catastrophic leave shall be paid at his/her regular daily rate. No distinction shall be made as to the differing pay rates of the donors or recipients. iv. Any catastrophic leave that is granted to a unit member but not used shall be redeposited in the Catastrophic leave Bank. v. Leave from the Bank may not be used for illness or injury that qualifies the participating unit member for Worker’s Compensation Benefits, unless and until the participating unit member has exhausted all Worker’s Compensation Leave (pursuant to Education Code Section 44984 and Article 14, Section 1, Personal Injury Leave, of this Agreement). If the participating unit member is receiving Worker’s Compensation temporary disability payments, he or she must sign over those payments in order that he or she receives no more that 100% of his or her salary. If the participating unit member is receiving temporary disability payments, the participating unit member’s withdrawals from the Bank shall be reduced only in the amount necessary to provide a full day’s wages or salary. vi. A participating unit members request for withdrawal from the Bank may be denied, or withdrawal terminated, if the participating unit member or member of his or her immediate family no longer suffers from a catastrophic illness or injury as defined in Section C, or if the participating unit member has submitted false, misleading, inaccurate or incomplete information in order to obtain leave from the Bank.
