A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
DOWNEY ADOPTING A CITY COUNCIL POLICY ON INDUSTRIAL
INJURY LEAVES OF ABSENCE
WHEREAS, that certain document entitled City of Downey Personnel
Manual provides in Procedure VI, Section 10 thereof for Workmen's
Compensation procedures; and
WHEREAS, such procedures do not cover cases in which an employee
is off work for a year and becomes eligible for disability retirement;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DOWNEY DOES RESOLVE
AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That a new sub - section C be added to the above mentioned
Section 10, as follows:
C. Any employee who is absent from work by reason of an injury or
illness covered by Workman's Compensation, shall be allowed up
to one year leave of absence, as required by his condition, with
the City supplying the difference between the amount granted
pursuant to such Workman's Compensation and the employee's regu-
lar rate of pay.
1. Any employee who is absent from work by reason of an injury
or illness covered by Workman's Compensation will continue
to accrue sick leave and vacation benefits as though he were
not on leave of absence; but shall not receive credit for
holidays or overtime scheduled while he is on leave.
2. Whenever such disability of an employee continues for a
period beyond one year the leave of absence shall continue
until the expiration of his accrued sick leave, vacation and
previously accrued compensating time off for overtime, with
compensation at the employee's regular rate of pay.
3. When it appears the employee cannot return to work by the
expiration of such allowances, disability retirement shall
be requested to become effective at the expiration of these
allowances unless the employee applies for or consents to
his retirement as of an earlier date, at which time he may
be compensated for his accrued benefits, at his regular rate
I I
of pay.
4. No employee shall be paid any disability indemnity under
Workman's Compensation concurrently with wages or salary
payments amounting to more than his regular rate of pay at
any time during his leave of absence.
SECTION 2. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this
resolution.
