Sick Leave Recovery. An employee may use sick leave entitlements for time lost through accidental injuries (other than WCB claims, as provided for in Article 17.09). Should an employee, who is in receipt of paid sick leave benefits as a result of such injuries, commence an action for damages against a third party as a result of accidental injuries, and should that action include a claim for lost wages, the employee will enter into an agreement with the Corporation to reimburse the Corporation the full amount of all sick leave benefits received as a result of her/his absence from work. Upon receipt of such monies, the Corporation shall credit the employee with the number of sick days equivalent thereto.
