dock day means a work day on which the employee does not report to work and for which the employee has no remaining paid leave to cover. Employees may apply for a maximum of up to five dock days without pay, per school year. Dock days will not be carried forward and will not accumulate to the next work year. In addition, they may not be used to accept other employment or work outside the school system for compensation. Requests for dock days must be submitted at least two weeks prior to the date of leave and must be approved by the immediate supervisor and the board of education. No employee shall be permitted to exercise a dock day unless he/she has first submitted a prior written request to use a dock day.
