An Act establishing a sick leave bank for Dr. Heidi Tarr Henson, an employee of the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development.
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 executive office of labor and workforce development, 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 or rule or regulation to the contrary, the executive office of labor and workforce development shall establish a sick leave bank for Dr. Heidi Tarr Henson, an employee of the executive office. Any employee of the executive office may voluntarily contribute 1 or more sick, personal, or vacation days to the sick leave bank for use by Dr. Heidi Tarr Henson. Sick leave banks 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 executive office. Whenever Dr. Heidi Tarr Henson terminates employment the executive office or requests to dissolve the sick leave bank, any remaining time in the sick leave bank shall be transferred to the extended illness leave bank.
