What options are available for an employee with little or no sick leave who can come to work because of the flu?
If the employee doesn’t have any leave credits, the eligible employee may ask the department to establish a catastrophic leave bank. A catastrophic leave bank collects leave credits donated by other employees to cover the employee’s absence. Catastrophic leave bank provisions are specified in the employee’s collective bargaining agreement or, for excluded employees, under DPA Rule 599.925. The employee may also be eligible for NDI or SDI.
