Every permanent full-time employee who has completed a
minimum of three (3) months' service shall be entitled to
accumulate sick leave at 1.75 days per month worked from
date of hire at one hundred per cent (100%) of salary (21
days per year). The earned sick leave shall be

credits pro-rated against the full-time employee

who, in the previous year, worked 1,095 hours compared to
that of a full-time employee would be entitled to 56%
(fifty-six per cent) of the full-time employee's sick
leave allotment (1,095 divided into 1,957), or 12 paid
sick days in the following year (21 X 56%). For the

sick leave credits shall be rounded to the nearest
half-day.
9.3 There shall be no sick leave remuneration for absence
caused by accident or illness for which an employee is
receiving workers' compensation benefits.

9.5 After three days' absence because of illness, no leave
with pay shall be allowed unless a certificate by a duly
qualified medical practitioner is forwarded certifying to
the inability of the employee to attend work, and if the
sickness continues, from time to time thereafter as the
Town requires.
9.6
Employees, upon termination, shall receive no credit
remuneration for unused accumulated sick leave, with
exception of those employees qualifying under section
below.

provided with a statement from the payroll department,
indicating the number of days accumulated, used and
remaining for each employee in his or her department.
Department heads will so advise his or her employees of
these figures.

.
Effective the 7th day of May, 1981, there shall be no
payment of accumulated sick leave for those employees who
have not completed five (5) years of continuous service.
For those employees having five (5) years of service or
more prior to the 7th day of May, 1981, they will receive

payment shall be charged against the Sick Leave Reserve
established by the Town of Kincardine.

(b) Medical benefits are optional with each employee and
not a condition of employment, where they are already
otherwise covered.
(c) Permanent part-time employees shall be entitled to
all extended health care, vision care, and dental
benefits provided to full-time employees. However, the
portion of the premium paid by the Town shall be
pro-rated against a full-time employee's entitlement
based on the percentage of hours worked in the previous
year. For example, if the Town pays 100% of the premium
cost for a full-time employee, a part-time employee who
worked 1,095 hours in the previous year will pay 56% of
the premium (1,095 divided into 1,957 hours). For the
