By earning the required number of points, the eligible participant will receive an incentive reward of $200.

Wellness Incentive Program. Any full time employee leaving the employment of the Court upon service or disability retirement may receive payment for a portion of accrued sick leave credits at the time of separation.

Wellness Incentive = 2.5% for each year of service X 20 years of service = 50% 50% X 500 hours = 250 hours. 250 hours X $25.00 (base salary at time of separation) = $6,250.00 The number of hours for which an employee may receive cash payments shall not exceed one thousand forty (1040) hours, including any vested sick leave.
