At which time the employee is charged for a sick leave day and then the following month, earns the day back.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px">A question has been raised that employee’s should still be able to accumulate 1.25 days per month, as allowed by ORC (however remembering that ORC allows for max accumulation of 120 days). A solution that has been proposed is to allow the employee to accumulate sick leave beyond the negotiated agreement maximum (for an additional 15 days per year) and then at the end of the school year, wipe out any excess days to keep the employee’s accumulated balance as per the negotiated agreement maximum.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px">How does your district handle this?<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px">Hope you all have a safe, and Happy New Year.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12.8px"><br></p><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:13.3333px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(255,0,0);font-weight:700;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Please note my new email address (</span><span style="font-size:13.3333px;font-family:Arial;font-weight:700;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap"><font color="#0000ff"><a href="mailto:smithj@acwhcc.org" target="_blank">smithj@acwhcc.org</a></font></span><span style="font-size:13.3333px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(255,0,0);font-weight:700;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">) and update the contact information you have on file for me</span></p><p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><font color="#800000" face="Trebuchet MS" size="4"><span style="line-height:18.4px;white-space:pre-wrap"><b>Julie Smith</b></span></font></p><p style="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><font color="#800000" face="Trebuchet MS"><span style="font-size:13.3333px;line-height:18.4px;white-space:pre-wrap"><b>Treasurer</b></span></font></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:14.6667px;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:rgb(31,73,125);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">1783 State Route 60 Ashland, OH 44805</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:13.3333px;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:rgb(128,0,0);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">P: </span><span style="font-size:13.3333px;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:rgb(31,73,125);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">419 289 3313 ext. 2211</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:13.3333px;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:rgb(128,0,0);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">W: </span><a href="http://www.acwhcc.org/" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:13.3333px;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';color:rgb(17,85,204);text-decoration:underline;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">www.acwhcc.org</span></a></p><br><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/7GpUcakZGq0SbZcpNEpMlRv8SZoqp2iC_0bTzZqSdKplL-yIUbQheq4g9wz6jISPAshqxGW408mFuRbPXfMGJmVTkl0B_bkz4L_cDwxnh21MpyXAubz9nPS3IIRY-bWIhXMtHcU" width="213px;" height="64px;" style="border: none;"></span></p><div><span style="font-size:14.6667px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;background-color:transparent"><br></span></div></span></div></div></div>
