Sick Leave. Any sick 22.01 Sick leave applied for in this section that qualifies for leave under is defined as the Family and Medical Leave Article period of this Agreement shall be used in conjunction time an Employee is absent from work with the rules of that Article of this Agreement.
a. All bargaining unit employees shall be eligible for sick leave full pay, as provided addressed in this Article, by reason of being sick or disabled, exposed to contagious disease or because of an accident for which compensation is not payable under the Workers’ Compensation Act or during the waiting period prior to receiving coverage under the Comprehensive Insurance Medical Plan.
b. All full time employees working forty (40) hours per week shall be entitled 22.02 The Employer and the Union recognize that the abuse of the sick leave provisions is counter-productive, lowers morale, increases tension in the work place, leads to 32 hours increased work load on managers and co- workers, and may lead to increased incidents of accidents in the work place. Abuse of sick leave is also theft. The ultimate cost of abuse of sick leave is carried by us all. The abuse of sick leave occurs when the Employee stays away from work under the guise of being sick or injured when in fact they could have worked even though they:
a) did not feel like it that day;
b) were a little under the weather but not really debilitated that much that they could not have worked;
c) were not feeling well enough to work because of personal activity the previous day or night that caused them to become ill;
d) had personal errands or activities that could not be accommodated unless a half (.5) or full day was taken; When the suspicion that abuse of sick leave provisions exists, the Employer:
i) shall investigate any alleged abuse of the sick leave provisions. The Employer agrees to advise the Employee and the Union of such investigation and
ii) the Employer may do the following, in no particular order, and not limited to: • interviewing the Employee about the perceived problem; • contacting individuals who may be able to confirm the suspicions; • writing a letter of warning to the Employee; • sending a medical practitioner to the Employees residence on the last day or days of the alleged sickness or injury after informing the Employee that such a visit shall occur; • requiring the Employee to report to their personal physician on the day of the first month alleged sickness or injury; • the Employee will advise their personal physician that they may be required to consult with the Employer’s Company Doctor. Also the Employee may be required to report to the Employer’s Company Doctor. Action such as the above is not conducive to the trust required to achieve a good and sincere Employee/Employer relationship. It is truly believed that Employee behaviour will not be such that suspicions of each school year abuse of sick leave occur. It is hoped that Employees and the Employer will endeavour to enshrine the trust required in a good Employer/Employee relationship and will earn eight (8) hours not attempt to violate this trust unnecessarily, unknowingly or maliciously. It is understood that investigations may occur but will only be done as required. The Employer and the Union acknowledge that unforeseen circumstances arise and that the Employee may feel that they require time off. If the need arises for time off that is not sick leave then the use of “Special Leave”, “Leave of Absence” or “Vacation Time” is appropriate. The Employer will approve such requests if: • it is arranged in advance, if possible; • taken at a mutually agreed time between managers, Employees and co-workers; • deemed appropriate upon the nature of the request. The Employer is not obliged to approve such requests but shall make every effort to accommodate reasonable requests. In investigating suspected cases of abuse of sick leave, the Employer will follow the provisions stated above, in Clause 22.02 and Article 11.
iii) may require the Employee to take professional counselling
22.03 In recognition of the fact that absence on account of illness is disruptive to the normal operation of any area, an Employee will endeavour to notify the area manager as far as possible in advance of the start of the shift of such absence.

22.05 Sick leave shall not accrue during:
a) any period of sick leave in excess of thirty (30) calendar days or b) a layoff or c) a leave of absence which exceeds thirty (30) calendar days or d) an absence while in receipt of disability insurance as provided under the Comprehensive Insurance Medical Plan or Workers’ Compensation Benefits.
22.06 An Employee’s sick leave shall be credited paid at the end their basic rate of that month and shall not be used prior to the time that it is earned and credited. No employee shall be entitled to earn more than one pay for each regular day of sick leave times the number of months of employment during the year of employmentwork absence. All employees working less then forty (40) hours per week will earn sick leave prorated in relation to the hours they regularly work.
c. Sick leave cannot be utilized before it is earned and credited to the employee.
d. Sick leave earned shall be credited to the employee on the last day of the pay period, or, in the case of separation on the last day the employee is on the payroll.
e. There shall be no limit on the number of hours of unused sick leave an employee may accrue.
f. Sick leave shall be taken only used to bridge waiting periods and to "top-up" weekly indemnity, long-term disability and Workers’ Compensation Benefits, to the maximum length of the Employee’s sick leave credits provided the Employee/Employer relationship as addressed in Clause 22.11 is not broken.
22.07 Absence on account of illness for two (2) hours or less may be deducted from the Employee’s sick leave credits.
22.08 An Employee may, when necessary because notifying the employee Employer that they are sick or providing an update, be required by the Employer to provide a medical certificate to validate any claim for sick leave.

Where necessary, the Employer and Union may, by mutual agreement, waive or amend relevant provisions of the collective agreement to allow for reasonable steps, in policies or conditions of work, to accommodate an Employee’s individual needs.
(b) Subject to documentation satisfactory to the Employer from a physician or licensed practitioner, an Employee who, due to disability, injury or illness, is unable to perform his/her duty on account their regular duties, shall be accommodated for such other work as may be available and for which they are able to perform.

(d) The parties agree that modified/rehabilitation programs make a valuable contribution to a rapid safe recovery after an illness or death of father, mother, brother, sister, husband, wife, child, injury has occurred.
