Sick leave bank for Sally Desrosiers
The Department of Correction establishes a sick leave bank for employee Sally Desrosiers. Any Department employee can voluntarily donate one or more sick, personal, or vacation days. She can use these days only for the illness or disability that led to the bank. The Department decides if an absence is related to that condition. If she leaves the job or asks to close the bank, any unused days move to the extended illness leave bank.
