Xxxxxxx Leave. The Union President or the President’s designee shall be allowed to handle complaints and grievances under this Agreement during working hours. The President or designee shall suffer no loss in compensation for time spent handling complaints and grievances for up to eight (8) hours per month. All time spent in such activities shall be recorded on a State form which clearly identifies the activity as release time. Release from work to perform xxxxxxx functions will normally be pre-approved and will not be unreasonably denied. The State form will be prepared and submitted to administration for recording purposes. If possible the form will be submitted in advance; however, when not feasible, the form will be prepared and submitted to administration within a reasonable period of time within the affected pay period.
Xxxxxxx Leave. A Unit I member who is absent due to physical disability/injury that results from an assault while in the scope of Board employment shall be kept on full pay status instead of sick leave during such period of absence. In this section, an assault is defined as an attempt by a person to cause or purposely, knowingly or recklessly cause bodily injury to a Unit I member.
Xxxxxxx Leave. A member who is required to be absent due to disability resulting from an assault, which occurs in the course of and/or as a result of Board employment or attendance at school sponsored functions in the scope of employment, will be eligible to receive assault leave. From the date of the assault, the leave will be granted. The leave will not exceed thirty (30) working days. At no time during the leave will a member’s pay or pay schedule be negatively affected. Fringe benefits for the employee and family will remain in effect during the leave. The member is required to submit to the Treasurer a statement of the incident. Such statement shall indicate the nature of the injury, the date of the occurrence, the identity, if known, of the individual(s) causing the assault, and the facts surrounding the assault. If the Assault Leave is more than two (2) consecutive working days, the member shall provide a certificate from a licensed physician stating the nature of the disability and its expected duration. The member who has been assaulted will complete an application for Workers’ Compensation Act Medical Benefits. If the member’s employment by the Board ceases, this provision shall no longer apply. Extensions of the above provisions may be granted by the Superintendent. Falsification of either the signed statement or a physician’s certificate by the employee may be grounds for suspension or termination of employment.
Xxxxxxx Leave. The Board shall grant up to twenty (20) days to employees who suffer physical injury as a result of physical assault by any person while in performance of his duties or in connection with his duties. The teacher will be maintained on full pay status with fringe benefits during this absence. The injured employee must be under a physician's care and have a physician's statement describing the nature of the disability and the duration of leave. Should the disability need more than twenty days leave, these additional days will all be assault leave. If the injury persists past the normal duration, twenty (20) days, verification may be sought by the Board's selected physician. (Maximum amount of assault leave-50 days per occurrence)
Xxxxxxx Leave. 1. Leave for Member absences resulting from a physical assault that has occurred while they are performing their job duties shall be governed by workers’ compensation and/or FMLA.

Xxxxxxx Leave. As soon as it is possible for the Treasurer to provide certification under Section 5705.41 and .412 Ohio Revised Code, pursuant to 3319.143 the following assault leave provision shall be effective: The Board shall provide employees with assault leave by which an employee who is absent due to physical disability resulting from an assault which occurs in the course of employment shall be maintained on full pay status during the period of such absence. An employee suffering such an assault may request assault leave by furnishing a signed statement on a form prescribed by the Board. Assault leave shall be granted upon approval of the request by the Superintendent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Superintendent may from time to time review the status of an employee on assault leave so as to determine whether such leave shall continue. An employee returning from assault leave shall be treated in the same manner as an employee returning from sick leave. An employee who has been on assault leave more than forty-five (45) days shall apply for disability retirement benefits from the School Employees Retirement System. Failure to apply will terminate assault leave. If medical attention is required, a certificate from a licensed physician stating the nature of the disability and its duration shall be required before assault leave can be approved for payment. Falsification of either a signed statement or a physician's certificate is grounds for suspension or termination of employment. Assault leave granted under this section shall not be charged against sick leave earned or eamable under the Ohio Revised Code. All earnings paid under this section are in lieu of workers' compensation wage benefits. Once an employee provides to the Principal a written statement, report, or any documentation about an incident that has occurred with a student, the employee may request to not be present in any meeting involving the student’s parent or legal guardian.

Assault leave shall not be charged against sick and/or personal leave.
