ARTICLE 24 INJURY LEAVE Section 24.1. When an employee becomes injured or disabled as a result of an event arising out of and in the course of bona fide fire/EMS work as determined by the Village, so as to be physically unfit for duty, the employee shall be granted injury leave with pay by the Village beginning with the first working day of such disability. In order to be eligible for injury leave, as provided in this article, the employee must file a claim with Workers' Compensation and the employee's disability must be evidenced by a certificate of a physician who examined the employee. Paid injury leave shall not be granted to employees who incur injuries of a routine nature or to employees while in the employment of another person or entity. Section 24.2. Injury leave shall not exceed ninety (90) consecutive calendar days after the beginning of the leave unless an extension is granted by the Employer. Said leave may be canceled at an earlier time as provided below: When an employee is released by his physician to return to work; At such time that the employee is declared capable of performing his normal duties by a physician appointed by the Employer; If, prior to release for normal duties, it is determined by a physician that the employee is capable of performing limited work assignments, the employee shall immediately report for duty under the conditions set forth in the physician's certificate; Any limited assignments of duties shall be reviewed each thirty (30) calendar days to determine if the employee is capable of resuming normal unlimited duties. Section 24.3. The Employer shall have the right to require the employee to have a physical exam by a physician appointed by the Employer resulting in the physician's certification that the employee is unable to work due to the injury as a condition precedent to the employee receiving any benefits under this Article. The designated physician's opinion shall govern whether the employee is actually disabled, but shall not govern whether the injury was duty related. 20
