Short Disability Benefits. (a) The Court agrees to continue to provide each regular, full-time seniority employee short-term disability benefits, subject to such terms, conditions, exclusions, limitations, deductibles and other provisions of the current plan. If, at the end of the short-term disability period, the employee continues to be disabled, the Court, after consultation with the employee’s physician and its physician, may require said employee to attend educational and vocational training programs, at the Court’s expense. Upon completion of any such programs, the employee may be reassigned to another position with the Court at the rate of pay established by said position. The Court reserves the right to offer “favored work” to an employee who is receiving disability benefits, as long as the “favored work” is within the employees limitations and restrictions as certified. Any employee who refuses such “favored work” offer shall not be eligible for disability benefits. An employee performing such “favored work” will be compensated at the same rate of pay the employee was earning at the time he went on disability, for such time as the employee is eligible to receive disability benefits for two years, whichever is lesser. If the employee is in a regular position vacancy upon the expiration of the two (2) year period, the employee shall continue in said position if the employee is able to perform all of the essential functions of that job, with or without reasonable accommodation as provided under the Americans with Disabilities Act. In that circumstance, the employee’s rate of pay shall be reduced to the regular rate for that position. If the employee is not in a regular position vacancy upon the expiration of the two (2) year period, the employee shall be terminated concurrent with the termination of his disability benefits. The employee shall apply for the foregoing benefits immediately upon becoming eligible for same. Further, the employee shall keep the Court fully apprised in writing of his eligibility for and the status of said benefits and provide the Court with such certification as it may require. Any employee going on disability shall complete the disability form provided by the Court or its designee, along with a statement from the employee’s physician stating the nature of illness or disability and the expected length of time that the employee may be disabled.
