one hundred dollars ($100.00) of comprehensive and/or collision damages suffered by such employee
to the extent that such employee's personal automobile insurance policy does not cover such first one

coverage, and the City liability begins after the limitations of the employee's coverage is exhausted.
In the event a City employee's personal vehicle is damaged due to accident/collision while being used
for official City business and the employee is deprived the use thereof, the City shall furnish such
employee with a vehicle during such time as is reasonably required to repair said employee's vehicle.

(1) four (4) hour Friday and those hours equal forty (40) work hours in each workweek
(e.g. the Friday is split into four(4) hours for the A.M. shift, which is charged to workweek
one and four(4) hours for the P.M. shift, which is charged to workweek two).
C. A/B Schedules—To continue to provide service to the public every Friday, employees on
a 9/80 schedule assigned to the Civic Center, are to be divided between two schedules,
known as the "A" schedule and the "B" schedule, based upon the departmental needs.

off on the Friday in the middle of the pay period, or, "off on payday", the"B"schedule shall
have the first Friday (P.M.) and the last Friday (A.M.) off, or "working on payday." An

EXHIBIT H — CATASTROPHIC LEAVE DONATION PROGRAM
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 time off, 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 off 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.
