Care-leave committee recommendation for temporary employee coverage approved
Summary
The commission approved the Care Leave Committees recommendation to provide an initial 30 days of paid care leave to a county employee from the donated bank; the program can provide up to 60 days and is funded by employee donations of vacation/comp time.
Larry, chair of the Care Leave Committee, presented the committees recommendation and asked the commission to authorize the first 30 days of care-leave coverage for a county employee. Larry described the program as a pool funded by employee donations of vacation or comp time that can provide up to 60 days of pay when an employees own leave is exhausted. He told commissioners, "Careleave is actually due to the generosity of county employees donating some of their vacation time or comp time to a program that allows if a county employee is off work for more than the length of time that they have in sick leave or vacation time, to make sure that their pay continues for... can be a total of up to 60 days."
A motion to approve the Care Leave Committee recommendation for the first 30 days of coverage was made, seconded and approved on a voice vote. Commissioners noted they may revisit program parameters in a subsequent meeting but approved the immediate recommendation to provide temporary pay protection through the donated-time bank.
