An employee who returns from leave of absence on the approved due date will be returned to the same position and shift if the leave is for ninety (90) calendar days or less. Except where otherwise required by applicable law, an employee returning on the approved due date from a leave in excess of ninety (90) days will be assigned a vacant position and shift as similar as is practicable to the one occupied prior to the leave of absence. If no such vacancy exists as of the return date, the employee will be given the option of accepting another position for which she/he is determined to be qualified or accepting a Per Diem position until a vacancy in his/her classification for which (s)he is determined to be qualified arises, or waiting until a comparable position becomes available. If the vacant position has more hours (irrespective of the shift), the vacancy will be filled by use of the posting and filling of vacancies procedure of this Agreement. If a vacant position has comparative hours and is on the same shift, the position will be assigned to the employee without regard to the bidding procedure. If the vacant position has fewer hours than his/her former position (irrespective of shift) or has comparable hours and is on a different shift, the employee will be offered the vacant position and will have the option of accepting the position, or remaining in per diem status, until a position comparable in hours and shift to his/her former position becomes available. While in such per diem status, however, the employee must meet the Employer's minimum availability requirements for per diem employees. V. Failure to Return from Leave Any employee who does not return to work on the due date may be disciplined, and an employee who does not return to work within three (3) days of the due date will be terminated as of that date, unless an extension of the leave of absence has been requested in writing by the employee and granted in writing by the Employer, prior to the return due date. If the employer denies an extension, the employee must return to work as of the original date authorized, unless the Employer acted unreasonably in denying such request. In the event of emergent circumstances, where the employee could not return to work (i.e. auto accident, emergency hospitalization) and the employee requested an extension in timely fashion, an extension of the leave may be granted and not unreasonably denied. W. Concurrent Leaves Except as otherwise required by law, if a condition or reason for leave entitles an employee to more than one type of leave under this Article, such leaves shall run concurrently. ARTICLE 26: PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS All physical examinations required of employees in connection with their employment, according to the practice of the Employers, shall be given without charge, and all costs incident to those examinations shall be borne by the Employers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Article shall be construed to obligate the Employers to pay for 106
