Sick leave bank for Daniel Yender
The law creates a sick leave bank at the Massachusetts Department of Transportation for Daniel Yender. Any department employee can donate one or more sick, personal, or vacation days. The department runs the bank and decides if an absence is tied to the illness or disability that led to the bank. Donated days can only be used for that illness or disability, not for other reasons. If Daniel leaves the department or asks to end the bank, any unused days move to the extended illness leave bank.
