<b>Subject:</b> Question - Sick Leave Accumulation<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:9.5pt">Good Afternoon,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:9.5pt">I have employee’s, as most of us do, that have reached the maximum accumulated sick leave allowed by our negotiated agreement. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:9.5pt"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:9.5pt">Our practice has been that when an employee reaches the maximum, they no longer accumulate sick leave, unless a day is taken. At which time the employee
is charged for a sick leave day and then the following month, earns the day back.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:9.5pt"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:9.5pt">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.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
