If professional medical attention is required by the employee or member of the employee's immediate family, or if the employee is absent more than five consecutive work days, a certificate from a licensed physician verifying the employee's inability to report to work may be required. The decision to approve or deny sick leave shall be made after the supervisor has received the required documentation, and such approval is discretionary. All Request Forms should be retained by the primary department. The Payroll department also maintains sick leave records for hourly-paid staff. 4202.5 Transfer of Accrued Sick Leave When a former Wright State University employee begins employment with another Ohio state agency, accrued sick leave will be transferred to that Ohio state agency, provided the time between separation and reappointment does not exceed ten years.
Payment is based upon the employee's rate of compensation at the time of retirement or death.
Such payment eliminates all sick leave credit of the employee. A retirement payout for sick leave shall be made only once to any employee. An employee who returns to state service after retirement and receipt of cash payment for sick leave credit may accrue and use sick leave as before, but may not receive a cash settlement for the unused sick leave at the time of a second retirement. When a fiscal faculty member or salaried unclassified staff member separates from the university, the supervisor or recordkeeper in the primary department shall forward the record of sick leave usage that occurred during the last month of employment to the Office of Faculty and Professional Services in the Department of Human Resources.
