Sick leave may be used by a newly hired employee after the 90-day review period. Maximum accrual is 60 days. Available sick days are printed on pay stubs. Eligibility for Long Term Disability insurance applies after this six month period. They are not counted against other accrued time off and pay will not be given in lieu of taking a bonus day.
New employees receive a pro-rated benefit depending on hire date.
Exempt employees should use only whole days. This time is not deducted from an employee's sick bank. Exempt employees, with supervisory approval, may adjust their workday for medical appointments and will be paid for the entire day. A staff employee with six or more months of service is eligible for a general leave of absence in up to three-month increments. The maximum amount of leave is equal to an employee's length of employment or two years, whichever is less.
