If an employee does not apply for sick leave and the appointing authority believes that the employee is not able to properly perform regularly assigned work or that the general health of the employee is impaired due to disability, the employee may be required to undergo a physical examination by a physician selected by the Fire Chief or the Chief’s designated representative, the cost of such examination to be borne by the District. Based upon the medical report, a mandatory sick leave may be imposed upon the employee for the duration of the temporary disability.
