Sick leave bank for Mark Kratman
The law creates a sick leave bank for Mark Kratman at the Massachusetts Department of Transportation. MassDOT employees can give one or more sick, personal, or vacation days to his bank, with at least one day per gift. Only he can use the days, and only for the illness or disability that led to creating the bank; MassDOT decides if an absence is related. If he leaves MassDOT or asks to close the bank, any days left move to MassDOT’s paid leave bank. The law does not provide a cash payout of leftover days to him.
