8 <br />SLMO 2023-2028 Memorandum of Understanding <br />members and whose well-being is dependent on the employee’s care as defined <br />in the Personnel Rule X, Section 2, Sick Leave. <br /> <br /> A full-time employee will accumulate sick leave at a rate of eight (8) hours for each <br />full calendar month of service. An employee who is in unpaid status for 44 or more <br />hours in a pay period shall not accrue sick leave for that pay period. <br /> <br /> As part of the initial hiring agreement, the City Manager may grant to a new <br />management employee up to one-half of that employee’s sick leave accumulated <br />from the most recent employer, to a maximum of 160 hours. <br /> <br /> The maximum sick leave accrual shall be 2,400 hours (300 days). <br /> <br /> Payment for unused sick leave will be granted to full-time regular employees with <br />at least fifteen (15) years continuous City service at death, retirement or <br />resignation in good standing based on salary at termination, pursuant to the <br />following schedule. Number of sick leave days accumulated, multiplied by seven <br />and one-half percent (7½%), multiplied by the number of whole years of service, <br />multiplied by the hourly rate at termination. <br /> <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 <br />formula; or (3) any combination of service credit and cash as requested by the <br />employee. The combination of sick leave hours converted to service credit and <br />sick leave hours cashed out shall never exceed the total number of accrued sick <br />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 80 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 />
