Catastrophic illness or injury is defined as an illness or injury that is expected to incapacitate an employee or a member of the employee’s family which incapacity requires the employee to take time off from work for an extended period of time to care for that family member, and taking extended time off work creates a financial hardship for the employee because he/she has exhausted all of his/her sick leave and other paid time off (Ed. Code 44043.5). The purpose of the Catastrophic Sick Leave Bank Program is to assist an employee who is suffering through a catastrophic illness through the use of paid leave days donated to the bank by CUSD employees.
The District is requesting Board approval for the use of catastrophic leave for Rhonda Merrill and may direct staff to seek donations of sick leave on her behalf.
