When balances are checked on the last pay day in October the following year, Employees accruing at the eight (8) days per year rate shall have one-half (1/2) of the previous year’s accrued hours paid into Employee’s Post Employment Health Care Savings Plan and the remaining half will remain in Employee’s sick leave bank. ie: If you begin the year at the 8-day accrual rate half of your year’s accrual will be paid into your PEHCSP at the end of the year and the other half will remain in your bank. If the balance is below 960 when checked the following year, Employee returns to the twelve (12) days per year accrual rate. Employees are not eligible for HCSP payment when accruing at the twelve (12) days per year rate and all unused accrued hours remain in their bank. If the balance is at or above 960 when checked, they move to or remain in the eight (8) day per year accrual plan. For the purpose of implementing this plan in 2022, the leave balances will be checked on the first pay day following the signing of this contract and the terms above will apply going forward. 18.3 Severance Pay An Employee resigning his/her employment with the City will be eligible for a cash payment for unused sick leave if the following conditions are met: 1.
