The 193rd General Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts

AN ACT ESTABLISHING A PAID LEAVE BANK FOR A CERTAIN EMPLOYEE OF THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES.

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 department of social services, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public good.


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 social services shall establish a paid leave bank for Natalia Arrance, an employee of the department, whose daughter is terminally ill. Any employee of the department of social services may voluntarily contribute 1 or more of sick, personal or vacation days to the paid leave bank for use by Natalia Arrance. Whenever Natalia Arrance terminates employment with the department of social services or requests to dissolve the paid leave bank established by this act, the balance of the leave time shall be transferred to the department's sick leave bank.

Approved September 12, 2002.
