Sickness Benefits Sample Clauses
The SICKNESS BENEFITS clause defines the employer's obligations to provide compensation or benefits to employees who are unable to work due to illness. Typically, this clause outlines eligibility requirements, the duration and amount of benefits, and any necessary documentation, such as a medical certificate, that employees must provide. Its core practical function is to ensure financial support for employees during periods of sickness, thereby offering job security and helping to manage the risk of income loss due to health-related absences.
Sickness Benefits. 1. Any regular employee with at least one (1) year of service (as defined in Section 4 below) in the building or with the same Employer, shall receive in a calendar year from the Employer ten (10) paid sick days for bona fide illness. Any employee entitled to sickness benefits shall be allowed five (5) single days of paid sick leave per year taken in single days. The remaining five (5) days of paid sick leave may be paid either for illnesses of more than one (1) day’s duration or may be counted as unused sick leave days. The employee shall receive the above sick pay whether or not such illness is covered by the New York State Disability Benefits Law or the New York State Workers’ Compensation Act; however, there shall be no pyramiding or duplication of Disability Benefits and/or Workers’ Compensation.
2. An employee absent from duty due to illness only on a scheduled workday immediately before and/or only on the scheduled workday immediately after a holiday shall not be eligible for sick pay for said absent workday or workdays.
3. Employees who have continued employment to the end of the calendar year and have not used all sickness benefits shall be paid in the succeeding January, one full day’s pay for each unused sick day. Any employee who has a perfect attendance record for the calendar year shall receive an attendance bonus of $125.00 in addition to payment of the unused sick days. For the purpose of this provision, perfect attendance shall mean that the employee has not used any sick days (except Union-paid, Union-sponsored leave for collective bargaining and Union governance functions). If an Employer fails to pay an employee before the end of February, then such Employer shall pay one additional day’s pay unless the Employer challenges the entitlement or amount due.
4. For the purpose of this Article, one (1) year’s employment shall be reached on the anniversary date of employment. Employees who complete one (1) year of service after January 1 shall receive a pro rata share of sickness benefits for the balance of the calendar year.
