Waiver of the foregoing <br />reporting requirement can be made by the department head only in specified and unusual <br />circumstances. <br /> <br />In instances when an employee cannot report for work on a scheduled workday, such employee <br />shall comply with call-in rules established by the department head for the employee’s work unit. <br /> <br />Accrual: Sick leave with pay is accrued at the rate of eight (8) hours for each full calendar month <br />of service beginning the first day of the calendar month following full-time probationary employment. <br />Employees whose full-time probationary employment begins on the first workday of the month shall <br />accrue sick leave upon completion of that month. Unused sick leave may be accumulated to a <br />maximum of two thousand (2000) hours. <br /> <br />An employee who is in unpaid status for 44 or more hours in a given pay period shall not accrue <br />sick leave for such period. <br /> <br />In the event employee absences from duty are deemed by the City Manager to be the result of <br />concerted activity, any employee claiming sick leave with pay shall be required to provide a doctor's <br />certificate stating the nature of the sickness or injury, the name and signature of the attending <br />physician, the time and date the employee was examined by the physician, and a certification that <br />the disability was of such severity as to prevent the employee from performing the job. The City <br />Manager may also require that the evidence submitted by the employee by reviewed by a physician <br />selected by the City and may require a physical examination by such physician at the City's <br />expense. In those instances where the City Manager requires that this procedure be followed, it is <br />understood that the burden of proof to qualify for sick leave with pay is placed upon the employee. <br /> <br />Sick leave shall not be granted to an employee who is absent from duty due to illness or injury <br />incurred while self-employed or working for an employer other than the City of San Leandro. <br /> <br />The parties understand and agree that once salary continuation benefits have been exhausted, if <br />applicable, sick leave, compensatory time and part-time PTO leave that have been accrued will be <br />coordinated with other applicable benefits, in that order, to mitigate the financial impact of an <br />employee’s absence. <br /> <br />Payment: Payment for unused sick leave will be granted to full-time regular employees with at <br />least fifteen (15) years' continuous City service at death, retirement or resignation in good standing
