Family member means:

 Your child, grandchild, grandparent, parent, sibling, or spouse (as defined under applicable law); and  Any individual who regularly resides in your home where the relationship creates an expectation that you care for the person and that individual depends upon you for care.

Accrual and Usage

Eligible employees accrue one hour of sick leave for every 40 hours worked. New employees begin accruing sick leave on their first day of employment. For purposes of this policy, the leave year is a calendar year. You will not accrue sick leave during vacation, paid time off (PTO), or while using sick leave. You may begin using sick leave on your 90th day of employment, and you may carry over up to 40 hours of accrued, unused sick leave to the following leave year.

Notice

If the need for leave is foreseeable, you must provide notice at least 10 days, or as early as practical, before the first day sick leave is used. If unforeseeable, provide notice as soon as practical before the required start of your shift. If known, notice should include the expected length of the absence.

Documentation

For absences exceeding three days, you may be required to provide verification that your use of sick leave is for an authorized purpose. Verification must be provided within 10 days after the first day of absence. Verification may not be required if it results in an unreasonable burden or expense to you and may not exceed privacy or verification requirements otherwise established by law.

Interaction with Other Leave

You may be required to use available sick leave during family and medical leave, disability leave, or other statutorily authorized leave that would otherwise be unpaid.

Payment upon Termination

You will not be paid for any unused sick leave when your employment ends.

Reinstatement of Sick Leave upon Rehire

The Company will reinstate previously accrued, unused sick leave if you separate and are rehired within 12 months.

Retaliation

The Company will not retaliate against employees who request or take leave in accordance with this policy.
