Article 42—Leaves of Absence

Each year, UTN Members are credited with fifteen (15) days to their individual sick banks.  Unused days are cumulative from year to year during the term of employment.

Family sick is to be reported as “sick”.

Annually, up to five (5) days from an individual’s “sick bank” may be used for “personal” reasons.  Personal days which extend a weekend or holiday require the approval of the immediate supervisor.  Personal days which extend a weekend or holiday by more than two (2) days also require the approval of the Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources.
