Personnel Committee <br />Meeting Date: 04/24/2012 <br />By: Colleen Lasher, Administrative Services <br />Title: <br />Consider a Resolution to Revise the Citv's Vacation Donation Policy <br />4. 2. <br />Background: <br />The City has a vacation donation policy which sets forth the conditions and procedures under which employees will <br />be allowed to voluntarily donate accrued vacation leave to fellow employees. <br />Vacation leave may voluntarily be donated to employees who have a serious medical condition as defined by the <br />Family and Medical Leave Act and who have no accrued and banked vacation, sick, or paid holiday leave or <br />compensatory time off available. <br />However, the current policy excludes the use of vacation donation once an employee exhausts their available days <br />under the Family Medical Leave Act. Staff has surveyed other cities and consulted with the League of Minnesota <br />Cities regarding this exclusion and found it to be absent from the surveyed city's policies and unnecessary. <br />Recommendation: <br />Approve a revision to the Vacation Donation Policy to exclude the requirement of active coverage under the Family <br />Medical Leave Act as follows: <br />Donation of vacation leave will not be allowed once an employee is determined to be unable to return to work. <br />The full policy is attached for review. <br />Funding Source: <br />No funding is required. <br />Council Action: <br />Motion to confirm the recommendation of the Personnel Committee to approve resolution 12-05-XXX approving a <br />revised Vacation Donation Policy within the Citv's Personnel Policy. <br />Vacation Donation Policy <br />Resolution <br />Attachments <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Kurt Ulrich Kurt Ulrich 04/19/2012 01:51 PM <br />Form Started By: Colleen Lasher Started On: 04/16/2012 02:02 PM <br />Final Approval Date: 04/19/2012 <br />
