Upon return to duty, the member shall utilize the vacation <br />accrued while on medical leave within twelve (12) months of return to duty. The vacation <br />utilization shall be in accordance with established department vacation sign-up <br />procedures. <br /> <br />14.4 An employee may elect to cash out up to 120 hours of unused vacation leave that will <br />accrue in the following tax year, to be paid in the second pay period in July and/or <br />December. The cash out payment is taxable income and subject to all applicable <br />withholding amounts and payroll deductions. <br /> <br /> The election must be made by December 15th of each year for the following year, and is <br />irrevocable after that date. <br /> <br /> If, after making an irrevocable election, an employee fails to accrue sufficient hours to <br />satisfy their election amount, they will only be eligible to cash out up to the hours accrued <br />in the tax year. <br /> <br /> Employees who do not submit a cash out election by the annual deadline will be deemed <br />to have waived the right to cash out any vacation leave in the following tax year and will <br />not be eligible to cash out vacation leave in that year. <br /> <br />Section 15. Sick Leave <br /> <br />The object of sick leave is to provide orderly methods of furthering the health and safety of each <br />employee as well as aiding in the maintenance of productivity. <br /> <br />Sick leave is not a right, which an employee can use at their discretion, but a privilege, which can <br />be allowed only in case of actual sickness, or non-job-incurred injury of such employee, or of such <br />employee's immediate family, which compels the employee to be absent from work.
