<br /> <br />13 <br />Local 21/SLCEA Memorandum of Understanding January 1, 2025 – December 31, 2029 <br />After submittal of a jury summons at least two weeks prior to the date of service, Water <br />Pollution Control Division employees, if practical, shall be assigned to the Monday <br />through Friday dayshift until released from jury duty. <br /> <br />Day Shift <br />Any day shift employee scheduled to report for jury duty before 12:00 noon shall not be <br />required to work beforehand. Any day shift employee released from jury duty prior to <br />12:30 p.m. shall report to work for the balance of the shift. <br /> <br />Section 14. Leave of Absence Without Pay <br /> <br />A leave of absence may be granted to an employee when it would improve the quality of <br />the employee's job performance for the City or is otherwise in the best interest of the City. <br />This may include leave for such purposes as additional job-related education or training, <br />or extended illness not covered by accumulated sick leave. <br /> <br />For the purposes of this section, a leave of absence is a privilege that may be granted to <br />an employee wishing to leave the City service in good standing without pay for a limited <br />period. Such employee must make a written request to their supervisor for such leave, <br />stating the dates upon which they wish to leave and to return, and the reason for the <br />request. The department head must submit a written statement giving their reasons for <br />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 other pertinent factors. The City Manager may approve <br />or disapprove the recommendation of a department head to allow a leave of absence for <br />a period not to exceed six (6) months. Approval may be given to extend a leave of <br />absence for one (1) additional period not to exceed six (6) months. <br /> <br />When reporting to work at the expiration of any leave of absence, an employee may be <br />required to submit to medical examinations to determine whether or not they are still <br />capable of performing the duties of their position. <br /> <br />Any employee leaving City service before a leave of absence has been granted is absent <br />without leave, and such conduct shall be proper grounds for discharge. Upon the <br />expiration of a regularly approved leave of absence the employee shall be reinstated in <br />the position held at the time such leave was granted, unless they conduct themselves <br />while on such leave in a manner constituting cause for discharge. Failure on the part of <br />an employee on leave of absence to report promptly at its expiration, or within a <br />reasonable time after notice in writing to return to duty, shall be cause for discharge. <br /> <br />Section 15. Holidays <br /> <br />15.1 All full-time regular employees, except as hereinafter provided, shall be entitled to <br />the following holidays provided that if an employee fails to report for scheduled work <br />on any of such holiday, they shall receive no pay: <br />
