If accrued vacation or sick leave is exhausted prior to the end of the <br />Family or Medical Leave, the remainder of the Leave may be taken without pay. <br /> <br />The use of accrued vacation and/or sick leave used in conjunction with Family or <br />Medical Leave does not extend the length of the Family or Medical Leave. <br /> <br />Intermittent Leave <br />When medically necessary, a Medical Leave of Absence may be taken <br />intermittently or as part of a reduced work schedule. In such cases, the City may <br />require the employee to temporarily transfer to an available alternative position <br />which better accommodates recurring periods of absences or part-time <br />schedules, provided the position has equivalent pay and benefits. <br /> <br />Return to Work <br />As a general rule, an employee that is granted a Family and Medical Leave of <br />Absence under this policy will be reinstated to the position the employee held <br />when the leave commenced or to an equivalent position with equivalent pay, <br />benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment. <br /> <br />If the employee on a Family and Medical Leave of Absence is a salaried <br />employee who is within the highest paid 10% of City employees and keeping the <br />job open for the employee would result in substantial economic injury to the City, <br />reinstatement may be denied in accordance with the Family and Medical Leave <br />Act. <br /> <br />If during the Family and Medical Leave of absence, the City experiences a layoff <br />and the employee would have lost his/her position had the employee not been on <br />leave, the employee is not entitled to reinstatement in the former or comparable <br />position. <br /> <br />An employee returning from a Family and Medical Leave of Absence of more <br />than one month should notify his/her immediate Supervisor at least two weeks in <br />advance of returning to work. Upon approval of the employee's immediate <br />Supervisor, an employee may return to part-time work at any time during the <br />Leave period. An employee shall commence normal working hours when the <br />Leave period has ended. <br /> <br />A. MEDICAL LEAVE OF ABSENCE <br />An unpaid Medical Leave of Absence will be provided in accordance with the <br />Family and Medical Leave Act to any employee who has a serious health <br />condition that makes the employee unable to perform the functions of his/her job. <br />A "serious health condition" is defined as any illness, injury, impairment, or <br />physical or mental health condition that requires: <br />· Inpatient care in a hospital, hospice, or residential medical care facility or <br />· Any period of incapacity due to pregnancy or prenatal care; or <br />· Any period of incapacity requiring absence from work, school, or other <br />regular activities, or more than three calendar days, that also involves <br />continuing treatment by, or under the supervision of, a health care <br />provider; or <br />· Continuing treatment by, or under the supervision of, a health care
