education, physical disability of three (3) scheduled workdays or less, and/or as secondary pay to supplement State Disability Insurance or Workers’ Compensation, or any other reasons deemed appropriate by the employee. b. Requests for PTO will be governed by the provisions described below. (1) Advance Requests for One Work Week or More of PTO. (a) Employees shall submit their PTO preference dates in writing by February 1st of each year and the Employer shall post a schedule by March 1st of each year. (b) If staffing, scheduling, or patient care or work requirements do not permit the approval of all PTO requests submitted by employees, then the employee’s seniority shall be the determining factor within each work area and classification. (2) Other PTO Requests. Requests for PTO that are not submitted under Section A.3.b above shall be submitted in writing at least one week in advance of the posting of the schedule covering such day or days. If all such requests within the work area cannot be granted, then seniority within that area and classification shall govern, subject to the following: Seniority will not govern if a less senior employee’s PTO request has already been approved. The Employer will use its best efforts to grant each employee who requests it, at least one (1) of the following two (2) holidays off: Christmas Day and the following New Years Day. Where conflicts arise in the same work area, classification and shift, seniority will govern, but each employee (if possible, due to Staffing and scheduling) shall be granted one of these two major holidays off before any employee is granted both major holidays. The holiday shift, for the purpose of this provision, is described in Section A.6 below. (3) When Advance Notice Is Not Possible. Advance written request for the use of PTO is not required if the employee’s own disability, or an emergency, necessitates an unplanned absence that was not requested and approved in advance of that day. In all such cases, the reason for the absence shall be given, and the employee shall follow the Employer or work area’s requirements as to when and how notice is to be given. If such unplanned absences, except 78
those covered or due to Workers’ Compensation, F.M.L.A., or absences that are a direct result of a chronic illness covered under the Americans With Disabilities Act (A.D.A.) (whether paid or unpaid) without advance notice and approval exceed five (5) incidents within the prior twelve (12) months, the supervisor and the employee may meet to clarify the nature of the absences, and if determined to exceed acceptable behavior, counseling or disciplinary action may be taken. Consecutive days taken at one time are one incident of unplanned absence. Employees requested to meet with their supervisor are entitled to Union representation. The supervisor, in determining acceptable behavior, shall also consider whether a doctor’s note was requested and provided, and shall not rely solely on the number of incidents. c. A minimum of two (2) workweeks of PTO is to be taken by a Regular employee each twelve-month period. No more than two hundred eighty (280) hours of PTO can be accumulated from prior anniversary years, and any excess amounts will be paid to the employee in the first pay period in October, unless, and to the extent an employee has requested a vacation in which he/she will use all PTO in excess of the two hundred eighty (280) hours by the end of the calendar year (December 31), and such vacation had been granted in accordance with Article 20, Section A.3.b. An employee may elect, prior to December 31 of each year, to convert all or a portion of the PTO that he or she will accrue in the immediately following calendar year in excess of eighty (80) hours to a lump sum cash payment. The election shall be irrevocable and PTO hours subject to such election may not be used for any other purpose. Payment will be made in a lump sum on the payroll date for the last payroll period ending in such immediately following calendar year during which such PTO accrues or, if earlier, on termination of employment, and shall reduce the PTO Accumulation by the equivalent of such payment as of the date of payment. d. Requests for PTO, regardless of seniority, will be granted before any conflicting requests for unpaid time off are considered. Furthermore, requests for unpaid time off by individual employees will not be granted if the employee still has PTO hours or ESL whichever applies. Exceptions are: (1) An employee can elect not to use PTO for a holiday scheduled off. (2) An employee can elect not to use PTO for his/her own medical disability days preceding eligibility for ESL. 79
