An Act establishing a sick leave bank for Jennifer Gay, an employee of the Department of Developmental Services.

 

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
 

Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, the Department of Developmental Services shall establish a sick leave bank for Jennifer Gay, an employee of the Wrentham Developmental Center within the Department of Developmental Services. Any employee of the Massachusetts Department of Developmental Services may voluntarily contribute 1 or more sick, personal or vacation days to the sick leave bank for use by Jennifer Gay. Whenever Jennifer Gay terminates employment with the department or requests to dissolve the sick leave bank, any remaining time in the sick leave bank shall be transferred to the trial court paid leave bank. Sick leave bank days shall not be used for absences unrelated to the illness or disability that necessitated the establishment of the sick leave bank as determined by the department.
