Bill > H4427

This bill establishes a special sick leave bank specifically for Ankita Gajendra Patel, an employee of the Department of Corrections. The legislation allows other employees of the department to voluntarily donate one or more of their sick, personal, or vacation days to create a pool of leave time that Patel can use for illness or disability-related absences. If Patel leaves the department or requests to dissolve the sick leave bank, any remaining days will be transferred to the extended illness leave bank. The bill is characterized as an emergency law, meaning it is intended to take effect immediately to address a pressing need. The sick leave bank is limited in scope, with days only permitted to be used for absences directly related to the specific illness or disability that prompted its creation, as determined by the Department of Corrections.
