ORDINANCE N0.2004-07 PAGE 8 (e) Any abuse or patterned use of sick leave shall be just and sufficient cause for disciplinary action including but not limited to reprimand, suspension and/or discharge. (f) The department head may require an employee who has been absent due to a personal illness or injury, prior to and as a condition of return to work, to be examined by a physician designated and paid for by the employer, to establish that such employee is not disabled from the performance of his duties and that his or her return to work will not jeopardize the health and safety of other employees. (g) When the use of sick leave is due to illness or injury in the immediate family, "immediate family" shall be defined to only include the employee's spouse and children. (h) Upon the retirement of an employee from the Village all full-time employees shall be entitled to receive credit and payment for accumulated but unused sick leave not to exceed nine hundred sixty (960) hours, provided that they have been employed by the Village for ten (10) years or more. For purposes of this Section, an employee shall be considered to have retired when such employee takes action that is inconsistent with any reasonable intent to continue employment with the Municipality. (i) Any permanent full-time employee who, at the end of his or her first calendar year of service to Mayfield Village, has an accumulation of forty five (45) days and has not used any of the sick days earned during that year shall be compensated at the end of the calendar year the equivalent of five (5) days pay without having any days deducted from accumulated but unused sick leave. Sick leave accumulation lawfully transferred from prior public employees shall be included for purposes of this section. If under the foregoing circumstances, the employee has used one (1) earned sick day during the calendar year, then said employee shall be compensated at the end of the year for four (4) days, pay without having any of said days deducted from accumulated but unused sick leave. If, under the foregoing circumstances, the employee has used two (2) earned sick days during the calendar year, then said employee shall be compensated at the end of the year for three (3) days pay without having any of said days deducted from accumulated but unused sick leave. If, under the foregoing circumstances, the employee has used three (3) earned sick days during the calendar year, then said employee shall be compensated at the end of the year for two (2) days pay without having any of said days deducted from accumulated but unused sick leave. If, under the foregoing circumstances, the employee has used four (4) earned sick days during the calendar year, then said employee shall be compensated at the end of the year for one (1) day pay without having any of said days deducted from accumulated but unused sick leave. (j) If a full-time employee is scheduled to work on a holiday enumerated in Section 153.14 and cannot work due to illness, that day shall be considered a holiday day off and shall not be counted or compensated as a sick day. (k) An employee who transfers from one department of the Village to any other department of the Village shall be allowed to transfer his accumulated sick leave to the new department.
