§ 2-218.03. Maintenance of the sick leave bank.

(a) The sick leave bank shall be activated when a minimum of forty-five (45) days have been deposited. No further contribution shall be required of participating members unless the bank is depleted below thirty (30) days. All participating members who remain shall be required to contribute an additional day to the pool each time the bank is depleted below thirty (30) days. Participating members who do not have an additional day accrued at the time of replenishment may contribute the next available sick leave day and remain eligible for membership in the bank.

(b) Before the replenishment of the bank, notice will be given to the employees and participating members may withdraw from the bank upon written notice to the sick leave bank committee. If an employee has withdrawn and requests to be reinstated, the employee may be reinstated upon contributing an equal number of days as those who remained in the bank without withdrawing. An employee may be allowed to withdraw and be reinstated only one (1) time during the course of his employment. Employees who are not members of the bank shall be given an opportunity to become members of the sick leave bank during the month of December each year.
