Full-Time and Regular Part-Time employees who have completed at least 90 days of continuous service will be eligible for sick pay during each calendar year. Sick pay benefits may only be used in the case of personal illness or injury of the employee, or serious illness of an immediate family member. Full-time employees will be eligible for 5 days of sick pay per year. Regular Part-Time employees will be eligible for a prorated number of days (i.e. 25 hrs = 25/40 X 5 = 3).
 
Sick pay benefits may be accumulated from one calendar year to the next calendar year up to a maximum of 10 days.  Sick days are counted in the year taken.
 
Unused sick pay benefits may not be used for personal time off or as additional vacation, and employees will not be paid for unused sick pay benefits upon termination of employment. In addition, sick pay will not be considered as hours worked for the calculation of overtime.
 
Employees who receive sick pay benefits may be asked to provide medical verification, and absences of more than five working days may be subject to CHPC’s leave of absence policy.
