Who is eligible for the county sick leave pool, and how is it managed?
Any full time employee who has completed one year of continuous service with the County and donates either a minimum of 8 hours (1 Day) to the pool may become a member. The pool is for members who experience a catastrophic injury or illness and have exhausted all of their accrued sick leave and vacation time. Depending upon the recommendation of a doctor, a member may be able to withdraw up to one-third of the balance of hours in the pool or 90 days, whichever is less.
