What is the Sick Bank?

Sick Bank provides additional sick leave days to members who have suffered a major personal illness, injury, disability or quarantine and whose personal leave, sick leave, compensatory time and vacation leave has been exhausted.

How do Employees join the Sick Bank?

An employee must deposit 3 sick leave days upon enrollment. Employees are also subject to additional assessments of 1-3 days voted upon and approved by the Sick Bank Committee.

When can Employees join the Sick Bank?

An employee may join the Sick Bank during Open Enrollment (the months of August, September and October). Enrollment forms are available from the schools and the Employee Benefits Department.

How do Employees get days if they are eligible?

Employees must submit a Non-Certified Sick Bank Request form and a Non-Certified Sick Leave Bank Physician Statement before they can be granted days. The forms should be sent to the Employee Benefits Office. The sick bank trustees meet every two weeks if necessary all year long.
