Unused sick <br />leave may be accumulated to a total of two thousand (2000) hours. <br /> <br />An employee who is in unpaid status for 44 or more hours in a given pay period shall <br />not accrue sick leave for such period. <br /> <br />In the event employee absences from duty are deemed by the City Manager to be the <br />result of concerted activity, any employee claiming sick leave with pay shall be <br />required to provide a doctor's certificate stating the nature of the sickness or injury, the <br />name and signature of the attending physician, the time and date the employee was <br />examined by the physician, and a certification that the disability was of such severity as <br />to prevent the employee from performing the job. The City Manager may also require <br />that the evidence submitted by the employee by reviewed by a physician selected by <br />the City and may require a physical examination by such physician at the City's <br />expense.
