Bill > S2562

This bill creates a special sick leave bank specifically for Carlos Borges, an employee of the department of correction. Under this legislation, other department employees can voluntarily donate one or more of their sick, personal, or vacation days to a dedicated leave bank that Borges can use during a period of illness or disability. The bill specifies that these donated days can only be used for absences directly related to the specific illness or disability that prompted the creation of the bank. If Borges either leaves his employment or requests the bank to be dissolved, any remaining days will be transferred to an extended illness leave bank. The bill is classified as an emergency law, which means it is designed to take effect immediately upon passage to quickly provide support for Borges during his medical situation. This type of targeted sick leave bank allows colleagues to directly support a coworker facing significant medical challenges by donating their own leave time.
