8 <br />SLMO 2020-21 Memorandum of Understanding <br /> The above formula figure of seven and one-half percent (7½%) will be adjusted to <br />ten percent (10%) for an employee who terminates City service after completing <br />twenty-five (25) years of uninterrupted City service by way of termination, service <br />retirement or resignation in good standing with the City. <br /> <br />Upon an employee’s retirement, sick leave may be used as: (1) service credit on <br />an hour for hour basis, (2) cash in accordance with the above-mentioned formula; <br />or (3) any combination of service credit and cash as requested by the employee. <br />The combination of sick leave hours converted to service credit and sick leave <br />hours cashed out shall never exceed the total number of accrued sick leave hours. <br /> <br /> An employee whose death or permanent disability is a result of an accident which <br />is held to be compensable by the Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board will <br />receive payment for unused sick leave without regard to continuous City service <br />according to the seven and one-half percent (7½%) formula. An employee who <br />completed twenty-five (25) or more years of uninterrupted service shall receive <br />payment for unused sick leave in accordance with the ten percent (10%) formula <br />as described in the above paragraph. <br /> <br />4.3 Administrative Leave: Effective January 1 of each year, SLMO members will <br />receive 40 hours of Administrative Leave to be used during the calendar year. <br />These hours cannot be carried over from year to year. Any hours not used within <br />the calendar year will be lost and cannot be cashed out. Employees hired or <br />promoted into SLMO after July 1 shall receive Administrative Leave prorated <br />based on the number of pay periods remaining in the calendar year. <br /> <br />For the calendar year 2020, twenty (20) hours will be credited in the pay period <br />following City Council approval of this agreement. <br /> <br />4.4 Funeral Leave: In the event of death in the immediate family of a full-time <br />management employee, the employee shall, upon request to the supervisor, be <br />granted such time off with pay as is necessary to make arrangements for the <br />funeral and attend same, not to exceed a total of five (5) working days. This <br />provision does not apply if the death and/or funeral occurs during the employee's <br />paid vacation, or while the employee is on leave of absence, layoff, sick leave, or <br />any other leave status. <br /> <br /> The immediate family of an employee includes wife, husband, child, stepchild, <br />father, mother, sister, brother, grandchildren, grandparents, mother-in-law, father- <br />in-law, or step-parent where there is a child-rearing relationship. <br /> <br /> Funeral leave applies only in instances in which the employee attends the funeral <br />or is required to make funeral arrangements, but is not applicable for other <br />purposes such as settling the estate of the deceased. It is understood, however, <br />that leave as provided in the preceding paragraph may be granted to commence <br />prior to the death of a member of the employee’s immediate family or where death <br />appears imminent. <br />364
