Resolution amending the Lake County Employee Policies and Procedures section 4.5, Sick Leave.

 

Staff Summary

                     The County recognizes the need to standardize the rules for accrual of paid sick leave.

                     It is recommended that the minimum hours a part-time employee is scheduled to work in order to accrue sick leave be increased from 12 to 20 hours per week. 

                     Monthly accruals for part-time employees will no longer be based on hours worked; the new method will be based on scheduled hours.

                     It recommends that the provision allowing active employees to cash out up to 12 days of sick leave every year be eliminated.
