This policy explains the circumstances under which an eligible employee may use various types of paid and unpaid leave provided by the city. With the exception of sections I, II, III, and XIII this policy is duplicative (except for grammatical corrections) of the city’s annual compensation plan that is adopted by the city council as ordinance (and which supersedes anything contained in this policy). Employees covered under a union contract must refer to their specific Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for sections IV through XVIII.
