of all sick leave accrued to the time of such retirement at their current rate of
compensation to a maximum of three hundred sixty (360) hours. However, fifty
(50%) percent of the hours eligible for cash out maximum (180 hours) must be put
in to the employee's RHS Account and the remaining balance of sick leave hours
may be converted to CalPERS service credit as pursuant to CalPERS regulations.
For those employees hired on or after July 1, 2018, such employees may convert
unused sick leave hours upon retirement to CalPERS service credit as pursuant
to CalPERS regulations.
F. Use of Sick Leave
1. Approval
Sick leave can only be granted upon the approval of management or
his/her designee in the case of bona fide illness or injury of the employee
or in the event of the care or attendance of serious illness or death of a
member of the employee's immediate family.
Employees may use sick leave for medical, dental, and vision care
appointments but are encouraged to schedule such appointments that are
non -emergency or routine on regular days off when possible. When using
sick leave for non -emergency medical, dental, and vision care
appointments employees will provide as much advanced notice as possible
to the supervisor and attempt to schedule the appointments at a time so as
to be the least disruptive to the work operations, i.e., at the beginning or
end of the shift.
2. Physician's Certificate on Use of Sick Leave
Management may require evidence in the form of a physician's certificate,
or written statement, as to reason for any employee's absence of two (2)
or more consecutive working days for which sick leave was requested. A
failure to supply or provide said certificate or written statement shall be
grounds for denial of sick leave pay and the imposition of such disciplinary
action as may be deemed appropriate.
3. Physical Examination May be Required
Any employee absent from work, due to illness or accident, may be
required by management to submit to and successfully complete a physical
examination before returning to active duty. The physical examination will
be conducted by a physician of the City's choice, with all costs to be paid
by the City.
G. Use of Sick Leave — Care of Immediate Family
1. No more than forty-eight (48) hours of sick leave within any calendar year
may be granted to an employee for the care or attendance upon members
of his/her immediate family.
32
9842861.1 WE020-065
2. The phrase "immediate family", for the use of sick leave, is defined as
grandparent, parent, spouse, domestic partner, in-laws, child, stepchild,
grandchild, brother, or sister.
H. Temporary Disability
1. A City employee who is entitled to temporary disability indemnity under
Division 4, Part 2, Ch 2 of the Labor Code may elect to take that number of
days or portions of days of his/her accumulated sick leave, or his/her
accumulated vacation, as when added to his/her disability indemnity will
result in payment to him/her of his/her full salary.
2. When his/her accumulated sick leave, or vacation, or both are exhausted,
he/she is still entitled to receive disability indemnity.
I. Sick Leave Limitations
No employee shall be entitled to sick leave with pay while absent from duty on
account of the following causes:
1. Sickness or disability sustained while on leave of absence, other than
regular vacation leave or sick leave.
2. Disability or illness arising from compensated employment other than with
the City of West Covina.
J. Sick Leave During Vacation
Sick leave shall not be used in lieu of or to extend vacation leave. However, an
employee who becomes seriously ill on an approved vacation may contact his/her
department head and request that sick leave be granted in lieu of vacation for the
period of illness. Management has discretion in approving or disapproving such
request.
K. Holiday During Sick Leave
Observed holidays occurring during sick leave shall not be deducted from
employee's sick leave time.
L. Use of Sick Leave to Offset Disability Retirement
No employee shall use sick leave days to offset the date of disability retirement.
The effective date of disability retirement shall be as soon as practicable after the
City's physician has determined that the employee can no longer perform the
duties of his/her or an alternate position.
IV. WORK RELATED DISABILITY LEAVE
A. Injury/Illness Arising Out Of and In The Course of Job Duties
Whenever employees of the City are disabled, whether temporarily or
permanently, by injury or illness arising out of and in the course of their duties, they
33
9842861.1 WE020-065
shall be entitled, regardless of their period of service with the City, to leave of
absence while so disabled, without loss of salary as provided below.
B. Temporary Disability Compensation
Temporary disability compensation, if any, being considered as and
credited to salary for this purpose — for the period of such disability, but
not exceeding one (1) year, or until such earlier date as they are determined
to be permanent and stationary and unable to return to their usual and
customary duties.
The leave of absence hereby granted shall be in addition to, and shall not
be charged to or deducted from, accumulated sick leave except as
provided here.
Such leave, however, shall not be paid for more than three (3) days unless
and until such employees are determined by the City to be legally entitled
to receive benefits under the Workers' Compensation Law of the State of
California based upon such injury or illness. When and while applicable,
this section shall supersede the provisions of the Grievance Procedure.
C. Salary Step Increases during Leave
Relative to unit employees, (1) promotion or step increases which would have
come due during a disability leave shall take effect upon the day the employee
returns to regular duties in accordance with existing rules; (2) holidays occurring
during disability shall not be counted as disability leave days, but shall be
considered as holidays for which time off has been utilized; and (3) vacation and
sick leave benefits shall continue to accrue during periods of industrial disability
leaves.
D. Review of Safety Committee
The first three (3) work days of absence of unit employees due to a disability shall
be charged to the employee's usable accumulation of sick leave or other time off
benefits; provided, however, that the Safety Committee or its subcommittee, upon
request of the employee, shall review the circumstances of the injury. If the Safety
Committee rules that the employee had no possible opportunity to prevent or
reduce the injury through any alternative action, disability time off charged to the
employee's time off benefits may be restored. Such restorations shall be limited to
causes where no danger could have been anticipated or precautions and actions
taken by the employee to prevent or reduce the injury. Appeal of Safety Committee
determinations provided for in this section shall be made to the City Manager,
whose decision shall be final.
V. BEREAVEMENT LEAVE
Bereavement leave up to forty (40) hours per occurrence will be available to an employee
in the event of the death of said employee's immediate family member, which is defined
as a grandparent, parent, spouse, domestic partner, in-laws, child, stepchild, grandchild,
brother, or sister. If additional bereavement leave is necessary, sick leave may be used
as approved by the Department Head. Evidence or proof may be requested.
34
9842861.1 WE020-065

shall be entitled to receive his/her salary or compensation as such public
employee for the first thirty (30) calendar days of any such absence.
Pay for such purposes shall not exceed thirty (30) days in any one year of
City service. All service of said public employee in the recognized military

active military service with the Armed Forces of the United States in
connection with the activation of the Military Reserves shall be entitled to
military leave with full pay for the period of absence on military service in
excess of the period covered by said Rule 10, Section 10.26.
The amount of pay each such employee shall be entitled to receive from
the City for said additional period of military leave shall be the difference
between the gross pay and allowances actually received by the officer or
employee from the Unites States for such service and the gross wages that
said employee would have received from the City of West Covina if he or
she had not been called to active military duty, subject to all necessary and
appropriate deductions and withholdings.
The City shall also provide continued health and dental benefits to the
employees' dependents, provided that the dependents were covered for
those benefits prior to the employee being called to active duty. Further,
contributions to deferred compensation from the Cafeteria Plan shall not
be made during the time of activation.
4. The City shall not pay any wage or benefit provided for in this resolution

35
9842861.1 WE020-065

Jury Duty Policy
No deductions shall be made from the salary of an employee while on jury duty if
he/she has waived or remitted to the City the fee for jury duty paid for hours the
employee is scheduled to work. If he/she has not so waived or remitted the jury
fee, he/she shall be paid only for the time actually worked in his/her regular
position. An employee accepted for jury duty shall immediately notify
management in writing whether or not he/she waives or remits his/her jury fee to
the City.
2. Jury Fees Returned to the City
The City will grant an employee required to serve on jury duty, or to report for

will govern further details of this program.
Vill. FAMILY CARE LEAVE
Birth or Adoption
Leaves due to pregnancy or subsequent to the birth or adoption of a child for
parental care purposes, will be granted for a reasonable period of time by the City
Manager, provided such period, including paid leave and leave without pay, shall

be conditioned on whether the employee is medically disabled but must be directly
associated with the birth or adoption of a child.
2. Family Illness
Leaves due to serious health condition of a child, spouse or parent of an employee
may be granted for a reasonable period of time by the City Manager, provided such
period including paid and unpaid leave, shall not exceed twelve (12) weeks in any
12-month period. Only those employees with at least one year of continuous City
employment shall be eligible. Certification from a health care provider that the
employee's leave is necessary and the prospective length of such leave may be
required upon request. Family care leave shall be administered in a manner
consistent with Sections 12945, 12945.2 and 19702.3 of the California
Government Code. California law shall prevail unless preempted by federal law.
3. Use of Paid Leave
Paid benefit time such as vacation, personal leave days, compensatory
time and administrative leave may be taken during any family leave period
so long as the total time off does not exceed twelve (12) weeks. Such leave
must be used prior to an employee taking leave without pay except during
the disability period of a female employee, which is in conjunction with the
birth of a child. Sick leave may only be used during the disability period or
36
9842861.1 WE020-065
as provided under Personnel Rules. All employees on family care leave are
entitled to return to the same or comparable position.
More specific details on the Family Care Leave policy is set forth in City's
Administrative Policy and Personnel Rules.
IX. SPECIAL LEAVE OF ABSENCE WITH PAY
When an employee has exhausted all sick leave and vacation time to which he/she is
entitled, the City Council may, upon showing of good cause and justifiable and deserving
circumstances, grant to such employee a leave of absence with pay for a period not
exceeding six months and subject to such conditions as the City Council may deem
advisable. If the special leave of absence request is in relation to an employee's disability
accommodation, then the leave shall be determined through the interactive process on a
case -by -case basis. If temporary disability payments are paid to such employee during
any such leave of absence with pay, they shall be credited to and considered a part of
his/her salary, and the City shall pay only the difference which when added thereto would
equal his/her full salary.
X. LEAVES OF ABSENCE WITHOUT PAY
A. Unauthorized Absence — Automatic Termination
Any employee absent from his/her job for more than two (2) working days without
prior permission of the department head, shall be considered to have automatically
terminated his/her employment with the City unless such leave is extended as
approved by management for mitigating circumstance.
B. Unauthorized Absence — Other Disciplinary Action
Any unauthorized absence may be cause for disciplinary action.
C. Authorized Absence
Upon the request of the employee and the recommendation of the
appointing authority, a leave of absence without pay may be granted by the
Council or City Manager to an employee, who immediately preceding the
effective date of such leave, shall have completed at least one year of
continuous service.
An employee shall not be entitled to a leave of absence as a matter of right,
but only upon good and sufficient reason.
If the leave without pay request is in relation to a disability accommodation,
then the leave will be determined through the interactive process on a case -
by -case basis without the aforementioned restrictions.
D. Leave of Absence Without Pay - Duration
Request for leave of absence without pay shall be made as prescribed by
the Human Resources Director, and shall state specifically the reasons for
the request, the date when leave is desired to begin, and the probable date
of return to work.
37
9842861.1 WE020-065
2. The Human Resources Director may approve the request of leave of
absence without pay, of one hundred twenty (120) calendar days or less
upon the recommendation of Department Head.
3. The City Manager may approve, upon recommendation of the Department
Head, requests of more than one hundred twenty (120) calendar days, not
to exceed one (1) full year.
4. The City Manager may later, due to mitigating circumstances, extend such
leave of absence without pay for one (1) additional full year with the
approval of the Department Head.
5. A physician statement shall be required of any employee who requests
leave of absence without pay as a result of medical conditions.
6. If the leave without pay request is in relation to a disability accommodation,
then the leave will be determined through the interactive process on a case -
by -case basis without the aforementioned restrictions.
E. Leave of Absence — Employee Injured on Job
The City Council may grant a leave of absence without pay for an indefinite period
of time to any employee who is injured on the job, or has a serious illness even
though the employee does not meet the one-year of continuous service
requirements.
F. Accrual of Benefits
Leave of absence without pay granted by the City shall not be construed as a break
in service of employment, and rights accrued at the time leave is granted shall be
retained by the employee; however, vacation credits, sick leave credits, increases
in salary and other similar benefits shall not accrue to a person granted such leave
during the period of absence. An employee reinstated after leave of absence
without pay shall receive the same step in the salary range he/she received when
he/she began his/her leave of absence. Time spent on such leave without pay shall
not count toward service for increases within the salary range, and the employee's
salary anniversary date shall be set forward one month for each thirty (30)
consecutive leave days taken.
XI. FAILURE TO RETURN FROM LEAVE
Failure of the employee to return to his/her employment upon the termination of
any authorized leave of absence shall constitute an automatic termination from
City service, unless such leave is extended as approved by management for
mitigating circumstances.
The City reserves the right to revoke or cancel any authorized leave for reasons,
which the City finds to be sufficient.
