An Act establishing a sick leave bank for Richard Capone, an employee of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation.

 

Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to establish forthwith a sick leave bank for a certain employee of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.
 

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, rule or regulation to the contrary, the Department of Transportation shall establish a sick leave bank for Richard Capone, an employee of the Mass Department of Transportation District #4. Any employee of the Department of Transportation may voluntarily contribute 1 or more sick, personal or vacation days to the sick leave bank for the use by Richard Capone. Whenever Richard Capone terminates employment with the Department of Transportation or requests to dissolve the sick leave bank, any remaining time in the sick leave bank shall be transferred to the Department of Transportation paid sick 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 of Transportation.
