Upon exhaustion of any paid sick and/or injury leave benefits, an employee who is expected to recover and be able to return to regular duty shall be entitled to a leave of absence for the period of his/her disability, not to exceed one (1) year, subject to extension. Leave under this Section shall be in addition to any leave and benefits to which the employee may be entitled to under Section 29.1, provided that the period of leave granted under Section 29.1 shall be part of the one (1)-year leave granted under this Section 29.2 to the extent that Section 29.1 leave is without pay due to the employee's exhaustion of sick leave and injury leave benefits. The City reserves the right to require periodic medical documentation in support of the continuation of an unpaid disability leave, and/or to have an employee examined by a medical professional selected by the City. An employee who anticipates needing such an unpaid disability leave shall file a request for such leave with supporting medical documentation as soon as the need for the leave is reasonably foreseeable.
