Common use of WORK-RELATED INJURIES Clause in Contracts

WORK-RELATED INJURIES. Section 1. An employee who sustains a work-related injury, during the period of this Agreement, as the result of which the employee is disabled, if so determined by a decision issued under the operation of the Workers' Compensation Insurance Program, shall be entitled to work-related disability leave. Work-related disability leave is a leave of absence for which the employee will be paid full pay reduced by an amount that yields a net pay, including workers' compensation and social security disability benefits, that is equal to the employee's net pay immediately prior to the injury. Net pay prior to injury is defined as gross base pay minus federal, state, and local withholding and social security and retirement contributions. Work-related disability leave shall be payable for an aggregate of 12 months or for the duration of the disability, whichever is the lesser. In no case, however, will the aggregate of 12 months extend beyond three years from the date the injury occurred.
