III. U. 6. b. Sick Leave Usage Procedure

Use of Sick Leave

As an operating procedure to accompany DTAE Policy III.U.6., CGTC defines the parameters for the use of sick leave and required documentation as follows:

1) Absences over three (3) consecutive days due to illness (personal or immediate family member) will require a doctor's documentation or other satisfactory written evidence.

2) Employees may use up to five (5) days sick leave if needed in the event of the death of an immediate family member. Although an employee may request Annual leave for additional time, extenuating circumstances warranting more than five (5) days sick leave for death of an immediate family member will require Division Vice President and Human Resources Director approval.
