| 6 | 1012.865, Florida Statutes, is amended to read: |
| 7 | 1012.865 Sick leave.--Each community college board of |
| 8 | trustees shall adopt rules whereby any full-time employee who is |
| 9 | unable to perform his or her duties at the community college on |
| 10 | account of personal sickness, accident disability, or extended |
| 11 | personal illness, or because of illness or death of the |
| 12 | employee's father, mother, brother, sister, husband, wife, |
| 13 | child, or other close relative or member of the employee's own |
| 14 | household, and who consequently has to be absent from work shall |
| 15 | be granted leave of absence for sickness by the president or by |
| 16 | the president's designated representative. The following |
| 17 | provisions shall govern sick leave: |
| 18 | (2) EXTENT OF LEAVE WITH COMPENSATION.-- |
| 19 | (b) A community college board of trustees may establish |
| 20 | rules and prescribe procedures whereby a full-time employee may, |
| 21 | at the beginning date of employment in any year, be credited |
| 22 | with 12 days of sick leave with compensation in excess of the |
| 23 | number of days the employee has earned. Upon termination of |
| 24 | employment, the employee's final compensation shall be adjusted |
| 25 | in an amount necessary to ensure that sick leave with |
| 26 | compensation does not exceed the days of earned sick leave as |
| 27 | provided herein. Accumulated sick leave may be transferred from |
| 28 | a Florida community college to the Department of Education for |
| 29 | employment in the department subsequent to December 31, 1997. |
| 30 | However, not more than 104 hours of sick leave may be |
| 31 | transferred from the community college to the Department of |
| 32 | Education for each year of employment in the department. |
