excluded from the competitive service.

percent (50%) of unused sick leave accumulated subsequent to July 1, 1972, up to a
maximum of seven hundred and twenty hours (720) of unused, accumulated sick
leave, except as provided in paragraph V.C.5.d below.
Upon termination for any other reason, employees shall be compensated at their
then current rate of pay for fifty percent (50%) of all unused accumulated sick leave,
up to a maximum of 720 hours of such accumulated sick leave.
b. Non-Associated employees hired after November 20, 1978 shall be entitled to the
following sick leave payoff plan.-
Upon termination, all employees shall be paid, at their then current salary rate, for
twenty-five percent (25%) of unused, earned sick leave to 480 hours accrued, and
for thirty-five percent (35%) of all unused, earned sick leave in excess of 480 hours,

c. Except as provided in paragraph V.C.5.d below, no Non-Associated employee shall
be paid at termination for more than 720 hours of unused, accumulated sick lave.
However, employees may utilize accumulated sick leave on the basis of "last in, first

720 hours plus the amount over 720 hours existing on July 5, 1980). Employees
may continue to utilize sick leave accrued after that date in excess of such "cap" on
a "last in, first out' basis. To the extent that any such "capped" amount of excess
sick leave over 720 hours is utilized, the maximum compensate amount shall be
correspondingly reduced. (Example: Employee had 1,000 hours accumulated. Six
months after July 5, 1980, employee had accumulated another 48 hours. Employee

EXHIBIT 4 -VOLUNTARY CATASTROPHIC LEAVE DONATION
Guidelines
1. Purpose
The purpose of the voluntary catastrophic leave donation program is to bridge employees
who have been approved leave time to either return to work, long-term disability, or medical
retirement. Permanent employees who accrue vacation, general leave or compensatory
time may donate such leave to another permanent employee when a catastrophic illness or
injury befalls that employee or because the employee is needed to care for a seriously ill
family member. The leave-sharing Leave Donation Program is Citywide across all
departments and is intended to provide an additional benefit. Nothing in this program is
intended to change current policy and practice for use and/or accrual of vacation, general,
or sick leave.
2. Definitions
Catastrophic Illness or Injury - A serious debilitating illness or injury, which incapacitates the
employee or an employee's family member.
Family Member - For the purposes of this policy, the definition of family member is that
defined in the Family Medical Leave Act (child, parent, spouse or domestic partner).
3. Eligible Leave
Accrued compensatory, vacation or general leave hours may be donated. The minimum
donation an employee may make is two (2) hours and the maximum is forty (40) hours.
4. Eligibility
Permanent employees who accrue vacation or general leave may donate such hours to
eligible recipients. Compensatory time accrued may also be donated. An eligible recipient
is an employee who:
• Accrues vacation or general leave;
• Is not receiving disability benefits or Workers' Compensation payments; and
• Requests donated leave.
5. Transfer of Leave
The maximum donation credited to a recipient's leave account shall be the amount
necessary to ensure continuation of the employee's regular salary during the employee's
period of approved catastrophic leave. Donations will be voluntary, confidential and
irrevocable. Hours donated will be converted into a dollar amount based on the hourly
wage of the donor, The dollar amount will then be converted into accrued hours based on
the recipient's hourly wage.
An employee needing leave will complete a Leave Donation Request Form and submit it to
the Department Director for approval. The Department Director will forward the form to
Human Resources for processing. Human Resources, working with the department, will
send out the request for leave donations.
