<br /> <br /> Funeral leave applies only in instances in which the employee attends the funeral or is <br />required to make funeral arrangements, but is not applicable for other purposes such as <br />settling the estate of the deceased. It is understood, however, that leave, as provided in the <br />preceding paragraph, may be granted to commence prior to the decease of a member of <br />the employee's immediate family or where death appears imminent. <br /> <br /> The foregoing funeral leave provisions do not apply to hourly employees. <br /> <br />Section 11. Military Leave <br /> <br /> Military leave shall be granted in accordance with the provision of the California State Law. <br />An employee entitled to, and taking military leave shall provide his/her department head <br />copies of orders calling him/her to active military duty. The department head, within the <br />limits of military necessity and regulations, may determine when such leave shall be taken. <br />Upon returning from military leave, an employee shall provide, when applicable, copies of <br />military release papers. <br /> <br />Section 12. Jury Duty <br /> <br /> A full-time or permanent part-time employee, when reporting to jury service as specified by <br />summons, will be entitled to receive their full pay for the period of their jury service. <br /> <br />Upon the completion of service, the employee shall present written proof of jury service to <br />their supervisor. Service not paid for by the court is not covered by this section. <br /> <br /> Any day shift employee scheduled to report for jury duty before 12 noon shall not be <br />required to work beforehand. Any day shift employee released from jury duty prior to 12:30 <br />p.m. shall report to work for the balance of the shift. <br /> <br />Section 13. Leave of Absence Without Pay <br /> <br /> A leave of absence may be granted to an employee when it would improve the quality of the <br />employee's job performance for the City government or when such leave is in other ways <br />considered to be in the best interest of the City service. This could include leave for such <br />purposes as additional job-related education or training, or extended illness not covered by <br />accumulated sick leave. <br /> <br /> For the purpose of this section, a leave of absence is defined as a privilege which may be <br />granted to an employee wishing to leave the City service in good standing without pay for a <br />limited period. Such employee must make a written request to his/her supervisor for such <br />leave, stating the dates upon which he/she wishes to leave and to return, and the reason for <br />the request. The department head must submit a written statement giving his/her reasons <br />for recommending the approval of each request, after considering such factors as employee <br />work performance, whether loss of services would be detrimental to the City's interest, <br />availability of replacements and similar pertinent factors. The City Manager may approve or <br />disapprove the recommendation of a department head to allow a leave of absence for a <br />period not to exceed six (6) months. Approval may be given to extend a leave of absence <br />for one (1) additional period not to exceed six (6) months. <br /> <br />9 <br />SL Confidential EE Comp Plan 15-20 final
