This month, the following policies were reviewed and no changes are recommended on these policies at this time: i. Section 5 of Exempt Handbook ii. Section 5 of Non -Exempt Handbook BOARD ACTION REQUESTED: None Fiscal Impact: Included in current budget: Budget Change: PROJECT SECTION: Total Project Cost: Remaining Cost: EXEMPT LIFE INSURANCE HUC provides group term life insurance with accidental death and dismemberment for all full- time employees. HUC also offers voluntary term life insurance for all full-time employees. Information on life insurance is available through human resources/payroll. HEALTH/DENTAL INSURANCE HUC provides an opportunity for employees to participate in a group health (HSA)/dental insurance program. Employees are eligible for coverage the first of the month following hire date. Contact human resources/payroll for information regarding benefits and participation levels. Contact the human resources/payroll for information about continuation of health/dental insurance coverage after leaving. For those employees who participate in the high deductible family plan, HUC will contribute $4,000 annually into the HSA and for those employees participating in the high deductible single plan, HUC will contribute $2,000 annually into the HSA. Contributions are made in bi-weekly installments. Based on Internal Revenue Service rules, an employee must be an eligible individual to qualify for an HSA including generally having no other health coverage that is not a high deductible health plan. Veterans of the United States armed forces who receive medical benefits from the Veterans Administration (VA) or employees who are enrolled in TRICARE, which is health insurance available to active duty and retired service and reserve members and their dependents, are therefore not eligible to qualify for an HSA, but are eligible to participate in the high deductible health plan. A veteran who receives medical benefits from the Veterans Administration (VA) or employees who are enrolled in TRICARE who participate in the high deductible family plan, but who is/are not eligible to qualify for an HSA, shall receive $4,000 annually in two equal installments in lieu of said monies being deposited in an HSA. A veteran who receives medical benefits from the Veterans Administration (VA) or employees who are enrolled in TRICARE who participates in the high deductible single plan, but who is/are not eligible to qualify for an HSA, shall receive $2,000 annually in two equal installments in lieu of said monies being deposited in an HSA. DISABILITY INSURANCE HUC pays the entire premium of a long-term disability insurance policy for all employees. Information on disability insurance is available through human resources/payroll. FAMILY AND MEDICAL LEAVE (FMLA) Pursuant to the Family and Medical Leave Act, employees are allowed up to 12 weeks unpaid leave during a 12-month period for the following reasons: • Birth or care of the newborn child of the employee • Placement with the employee of a child for adoption or foster care • Serious health condition of the employee that makes the employee unable to perform the functions of the position of such employee • In order to care for an employee's dependent child, spouse, or parent suffering from a serious health condition • Any qualifying exigency arising out of the fact that the spouse, or a son, daughter or parent of the employee is on active duty, or has been notified of an impending call or order to active duty) in the Armed Forces in support of a contingency operation. Up to twenty-six (26) weeks of protected leave per twelve (12) month period shall be granted to all eligible employees for the following reasons: • An eligible employee who is the spouse, son, daughter, parent, or next of kin of a covered service member shall be entitled to a total of 26 workweeks of leave during a twelve (12) month period to care for the service member. The leave described in this paragraph shall only be available during a single twelve (12) month period. • A covered service member is defined as a member of the Armed Forces, including a member of the National Guard or Reserves, who is undergoing medical treatment, recuperation, or therapy, is otherwise in outpatient status, or is otherwise on the temporary disability retired list, for a serious injury or illness. The term "serious injury or illness", in the case of a member of the Armed Forces, including a member of the National Guard or Reserves, means an injury or illness incurred by the member in the line of duty on active duty in the Armed Forces that may render the member medically unfit to perform the duties of the member's office, grade, rank, or rating. Spouses employed by HUC, both in regular positions, are jointly entitled to a combined total of 12 work weeks of family leave for the birth and care of a newborn child, for placement of a child for adoption or foster care, and to care for a parent who has a serious health condition. Spouses are entitled to a combined total of 26 weeks during a single twelve (12) month period to care for an eligible service member. During the single twelve (12) month period, an eligible employee shall be entitled to a combined total of 26 work weeks of total leave allowed under the FMLA. To be eligible for FMLA leave, the employee must have worked at least one year for HUC and worked at least 1,040 hours during the previous 12 months. In order to receive FMLA leave, the employee must request the leave by providing human resources/payroll 30-day's notice prior to the requested starting date of the leave. If 30-day's notice is not possible, the employee must provide as much notice as possible. Human resources/payroll shall provide the employee a "Medical Certificate" which must be completed by the employee's physician and returned to human resources/payroll. Pursuant to the FMLA, HUC may request a second opinion from another medical provider at HUC's expense. If the second opinion is different from the employee's physician's opinion, HUC shall seek a third opinion at HUC's expense. The third opinion shall prevail. HUC may require that a request for leave related to active duty or call to active duty be supported by a certification issued by the health care provider of the service member being cared for by the employee. The 12 weeks of available FMLA leave extend over 12 months. To determine whether the employee has any FMLA leave remaining, human resources/payroll shall review the 12 months preceding the request for FMLA. An employee may use the 12 weeks of FMLA leave intermittently over the 12-month period if necessary and may take the leave in increments of one hour or more. HUC may require a medical certificate attesting to the employee's fitness for duty prior to return to work. The fitness for duty report must be based on the particular health condition(s) for which the leave was approved and must address whether the employee can perform the essential functions of his/her regular position. An employee on FMLA leave for serious illness of the employee, the employee's spouse, dependent child or parent shall be required to use vacation or sick leave concurrent with the FMLA leave. HUC shall continue to pay its contribution toward health and dental insurance while an employee is on FMLA leave. The employee shall be required to continue payment of the employee portion of the premiums during the leave. If the employee fails to pay their portion of the premiums, HUC may terminate their insurance coverage subject to COBRA requirements. At the end of FMLA leave, an employee shall be returned to his/her former position or an equivalent position. For more information on FMLA leave, see human resources/payroll. EARNED SICK AND SAFE LEAVE This Policy defines Hutchinson Utilities' compliance with the Minnesota Earned Sick and Safe Time (ESST) law outlined in Minnesota Statutes, §§ 181.9445 to 181.9448, effective January 1, 2024. Earned Sick and Safe Leave (ESST) is paid leave employers must provide to employees in Minnesota that can be used for certain reasons. The hourly rate of paid ESST is the same hourly rate an employee earns from employment with Hutchinson Utilities. This ESST Policy applies to employees who work in the State of Minnesota as an employee of the County for at least eighty (80) hours in a year, including seasonal, temporary, on -call, casual employees; and all full-time and part-time employees. For purposes of ESST compliance, the leave year is defined as the calendar year — January 1 through December 31. FOR FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES: For purposes of satisfying ESST, Hutchinson Utilities has previously negotiated or provided to employees paid vacation and sick leave which meets or exceed ESST minimum requirements under the law. The first 48 hours of paid vacation/sick leave used will be cross -designated as ESST. If the employee chooses to use paid vacation/sick leave for reasons other than those outlined in this policy as ESST eligible hours, the employee will not be provided with additional ESST hours. While an employee may use paid vacation/sick leave hours for an ESST purpose, the employee will not be provided with additional ESST hours once available hours have been exhausted. Once an employee has used their yearly 48 hours of ESST (or up to a maximum of 80 hours if an employee has any ESST carry over from prior years), none of their remaining vacation/sick leave they subsequently accrue or use in that year will be designated as ESST. Accordingly, the provisions of Minn. Stat. §§ 181.9445 — 181.9448 or this policy do not apply to paid vacation/sick leave taken after an employee has used their yearly ESST entitlement. FOR SEASONAL EMPLOYEES: All seasonal employees are eligible to earn ESST when at least 80 hours of work are performed in a calendar year (January 1 — December 31). An employee who works at least 80 hours in a calendar year will earn one (1) hour of ESST leave for every 30 hours worked, up to a maximum accrual of 48 hours per calendar year. Employees begin accruing ESST on their first day of employment. Employees may roll over unused ESST to the next year up to a maximum accrual of 80 ESST hours. For the purposes of this policy, ESST leave used by an employee does not count towards hours worked. Accrued and unused ESST will not be paid out to seasonal employees upon separation from employment. Earned Sick and Safe Leave Use The leave may be used as it is accrued in the smallest increment of time tracked by the employer's payroll system and may be used for the following circumstances: • An employee's own: o Mental or physical illness, injury or other health condition o Need for medical diagnosis, care or treatment, of a mental or physical illness o injury or health condition o Need for preventative care o Closure of the employee's place of business due to weather or other public emergency o The employee's inability to work or telework because the employee is prohibited from working by the city due to health concerns related to the potential transmission of a communicable illness related to a public emergency, or seeking or awaiting the results of a diagnostic test for, or a medical diagnosis of, a communicable disease related to a public emergency and the employee has been exposed to a communicable disease or the city has requested a test or diagnosis. o Absence due to domestic abuse, sexual assault, or stalking of the employee provided the absence is to: ■ Seek medical attention related to physical or psychological injury or disability caused by domestic abuse, sexual assault, or stalking ■ Obtain services from a victim services organization ■ Obtain psychological or other counseling ■ Seek relocation or take steps to secure an existing home due to domestic abuse, sexual assault or stalking ■ Seek legal advice or take legal action, including preparing for or participating in any civil or criminal legal proceeding related to or resulting from domestic abuse, sexual assault, or stalking o Care of a family member: o With mental or physical illness, injury or other health condition Who needs medical diagnosis, care or treatment of a mental or physical illness, injury or other health condition Who needs preventative medical or health care Whose school or place of care has been closed due to weather or other public emergency When it has been determined by health authority or a health care professional that the presence of the family member of the employee in the community would jeopardize the health of others because of the exposure of the family member of the employee to a communicable disease, whether or not the family member has actually contracted the communicable disease o Absence due to domestic abuse, sexual assault or stalking of the employee's family member provided the absence is to: ■ Seek medical attention related to physical or psychological injury or disability caused by domestic abuse, sexual assault, or stalking ■ Obtain services from a victim services organization ■ Obtain psychological or other counseling ■ Seek relocation or take steps to secure an existing home due to domestic abuse, sexual assault or stalking ■ Seek legal advice or take legal action, including preparing for or participating in any civil or criminal legal proceeding related to or resulting from domestic abuse, sexual assault, or stalking For Earned Sick and Safe Leave purposes, family member includes an employee's: • Spouse or registered domestic partner • Child, foster child, adult child, legal ward, child for whom the employee is legal guardian, or child to whom the employee stands or stood in loco parentis • Sibling, step sibling or foster sibling • Biological, adoptive or foster parent, stepparent or a person who stood in loco parentis when the employee was a minor child • Grandchild, foster grandchild or step grandchild • Grandparent or step grandparent • A child of a sibling of the employee • A sibling of the parent of the employee or • A child -in-law or sibling -in-law • Any of the above family members of a spouse or registered domestic partner • Any other individual related by blood or whose close association with the employee is the equivalent of a family relationship • Up to one individual annually designated by the employee Advance Notice for use of Earned Sick and Safe Leave If the need for sick and safe leave is foreseeable, RUC requires seven days' advance notice. However, if the need is unforeseeable, employees must provide notice of the need for Earned Sick and Safe time as soon as practicable. When an employee uses Earned Sick and Safe time for more than three consecutive days, HUC may require appropriate supporting documentation (such as medical documentation supporting medical leave, court records or related documentation to support safety leave). However, if the employee or employee's family member did not receive services from a health care professional, or if documentation cannot be obtained from a health care professional in a reasonable time or without added expense, then reasonable documentation may include a written statement from the employee indicating that the employee is using, or used, Earned Sick and Safe Leave for a qualifying purpose. HUC will not require an employee to disclose details related to domestic abuse, sexual assault, or stalking or the details of the employee's or the employee's family member's medical condition. In accordance with state law, HUC will not require an employee using Earned Sick and Safe leave to find a replacement worker to cover the hours the employee will be absent. Retaliation prohibited HUC shall not discharge, discipline, penalize, interfere with, or otherwise retaliate or discriminate against an employee for asserting Earned Sick and Safe Leave rights, requesting an Earned Sick and Safe Leave absence, or pursuing remedies. Additionally, it is unlawful to report or threaten to report a person or a family member's immigration status for exercising a right under Earned Sick and Safe Leave. Any employee who believes that they have been wrongfully denied ESST, retaliated, or discriminated against for requesting or using ESST must immediately notify Human Resources. The use of ESST will not be factored into any attendance point system the Utility may use. An employee has the right to file a complaint or bring a civil action if ESST is denied by the Utility or if the employee is retaliated against for requesting or using ESST. An employee injured by a violation of this policy pursuant to sections §§ 181.9445 - 181.9448 may file a complaint with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry and bring a civil action to recover any and all damages recoverable by law. Questions regarding ESST or this policy should be directed to Human Resources. Employees may contact the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry's Labor Standards Division at 651-284- 5075 or li. tea, �-,stan , s,Ci),state.mn.�us or visit the department's earned sick and safe time web a e at d i m a� /��ci< e. ✓e. P g................................................................. Benefits and return to work protections During an employee's use of Earned Sick and Safe Leave, an employee will continue to receive HUC's employer insurance contribution as if they were working, and the employee will be responsible for any share of their insurance premiums. An employee returning from time off using accrued Earned Sick and Safe Leave is entitled to return to their HUC employment at the same rate of pay received when their leave began, plus any automatic pay adjustments that may have occurred during the employee's time off. Seniority during Earned Sick and Safe Leave absences will continue to accrue as if the employee has been continually employed. When there is a separation from employment with HUC and the employee is rehired again within 180 days of separation, previously accrued Earned Sick and Safe Leave that had not been used will be reinstated. An employee is entitled to use and accrue Earned Sick and Safe Leave at the commencement of reemployment. Disclaimer This policy is not a contract for employment. The Utility periodically may update this policy and reserves the right to interpret the policy as well as replace, modify, or revoke it at any time, upon reasonable notice. SICKNACATION LEAVE DONATION The HUC recognizes that a catastrophic illness and/or serious health condition of an employee or immediate family member (spouse or dependent child) may deplete an employee's available paid leave (sick/vacation/compensatory time). This policy is meant to provide employees with the option of assisting fellow employees at such a time. HUC employees having accrued sick or vacation leave shall be allowed to donate a portion of such accrued leave to fellow employees experiencing a catastrophic illness and/or serious health condition suffered by the employee, the employee's spouse, or the employee's dependent child(ren). A catastrophic illness and/or serious health condition includes but is not limited to, heart attack, stroke, organ transplant, or other life threatening illness or debilitating condition as defined by a physician's diagnosis. The donation of leave from one employee to another shall be subject to the following terms and conditions. 1. An employee is only eligible to receive donated leave for time lost from normal work hours due to a life threatening disease or condition as defined above. 2. An employee shall be eligible to receive donated leave only after the employee's accrued sick, vacation, and compensatory time have been exhausted. 3. All requests to receive donated leave must be in writing to human resources/payroll and must be accompanied by supporting medical data. No full time employee shall be allowed to receive more than a total of twenty (20) work days or 160 hours of donated leave per single major life threatening disease or condition unless requested and approved by the General Manager. There is no limit on catastrophic events per year. 4. An employee may only use donated leave up to the time of eligibility for a long-term disability benefit (if applicable), or for the maximum number of days allowed to be donated, whichever occurs first. 5. A full time employee may donate no more than sixteen (16) hours of leave per calendar year to a single fellow employee. This shall not be construed to prohibit donating sixteen (16) hours per year to additional employees. Leave donation shall be calculated using time and not an equivalent cash amount. 6. An employee who is donating paid leave must do so from the employee's accrued sick and/or vacation leave balance. A written request to donate leave must be made to human resources/payroll on forms designated by HUC for that purpose. All donations made shall be kept confidential. 7. The General Manager shall have the right to deny use of donated leave or limit its use if it is determined to be in the best interests of HUC. Donated leave shall be subtracted from the donor's accumulated balance and added to the requested employee as part of the payroll function. Donated time shall be processed and used by the date of submission until the eligible amount of donated leave is reached. Contributions of leave hours exceeding the eligible amount shall be returned to the donating employee, and shall not be transferred. Donated hours shall be used in the order they are received. WORKPLACE ACCOMMODATION HUC shall make workplace accommodations in accordance with state and federal law. An employee who believes he or she qualifies for a reasonable accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) shall submit a request for accommodations to the General Manager. HUC shall engage in an interactive process with employees who request accommodation in order to identify the specific physical and mental abilities and limitations as they relate to essential job functions; barriers to the performance of essential job functions; and how these barriers could be overcome with reasonable accommodation. The employee may be requested to provide written documentation from a healthcare provider relating to the employee's medical condition and request for accommodation. If an employee refuses to provide such written documentation and/or sign an authorization allowing HUC to contact the healthcare provider, HUC will evaluate the employee's request based on the information available to HUC. HUC shall, in the process of evaluating potential accommodations, determine which, if any, potential accommodations present an undue hardship to HUC or the department in which the employee works. UNPAID EXTENDED LEAVE OF ABSENCE The General Manager may grant an employee's request for an extended leave of absence without pay. The unpaid leave of absence shall be a minimum length of one month and a maximum length of six months. Employees on an extended leave of absence for one month or longer which is not governed by the FMLA, are required to pay the full cost of any health, long-term disability or life insurance premium during the leave of the absence. Employees on unpaid leave of absence shall not earn vacation and sick leave. No employee shall be granted a leave of absence in order to accept a different position with another employer. Acceptance of a full-time position with another employer shall be deemed a resignation of the employee's position with RUC. FAMILY DEATH Employees may take a leave of absence with pay in the event of a death in the employee's immediate family. Time allowed with pay for exempt employees may not exceed five (5) days per family member. Employees may be allowed up to twenty (20) hours of paid leave for the employee's aunt or uncle. The paid time off will not be deducted from the employee's paid leave banks. If an employee is called to participate in the funeral services for the death of a person who is not a member of the employee's immediate family, an employee will receive four hours paid leave of absence. EMERGENCY LEAVE The General Manager may approve time off without pay to an employee who has no vacation or compensatory time available, if in the General Manager's discretion, the employee is experiencing an emergency requiring the employee's attention. MILITARY LEAVE HUC shall comply with Minnesota statutes relating to military leave. JURY, WITNESS OR BOARD DUTY A regular full-time and part-time employee called to jury duty will be granted paid leaves of absence. Employees are required to notify their supervisor as soon as possible after receiving notice to report for jury duty. Such employees will be required to turn over any compensation they receive for jury duty, minus mileage reimbursement, to HUC in order to receive their regular wages for the period. Time spent on jury duty will not be counted as time worked in computing overtime. Employees excused or released from jury duty during their regular working hours will report to their regular work duties as soon as reasonably possible or will take accrued vacation or compensatory time to make up the difference. Employees will be paid their regular wage to testify in court for HUC-related business or to serve on a work -related board or committee which pays a per diem. Any compensation received for court appearances (e.g. subpoena fees) or as meeting per diems arising out of or in connection with HUC employment, minus mileage reimbursement, must be turned over to HUC. VOLUNTEER FIRE OR RESCUE SQUAD DUTY In the event of an HUC emergency, the General Manager reserves the right to retain essential employees from Hutchinson volunteer fire or rescue squad duties or require employees to return to their HUC duties and assist the operation of HUC. HUC employees who are called out as members of the Hutchinson volunteer fire or rescue squad while on duty with HUC will be paid up to four hours regular pay while on the emergency call. SCHOOL CONFERENCE LEAVE Any employee who has worked half-time or more may take unpaid leave for up to a total of sixteen (16) hours during any 12-month period to attend school conferences or classroom activities related to the employee's child (under 18 or under 20 and still attending secondary school), provided the conference or school related activities cannot be scheduled during non - work hours. When the leave cannot be scheduled during non -work hours and the need for the leave is foreseeable, the employee must provide reasonable prior notice of the leave and make a reasonable effort to schedule the leave so as not to disrupt unduly the operations of HUC. Employees may choose to use vacation leave hours or compensatory time for this absence, but are not required to do so. BONE MARROW/ORGAN DONATION LEAVE Employees working an average of 20 or more hours per week must be granted paid leave, not to exceed 40 hours unless agreed to by HUC, to undergo medical procedures to donate bone marrow or to donate an organ or partial organ. HUC may require a physician's verification of the purpose and length of the leave requested. If there is a medical determination that the employee does not qualify as a bone marrow or organ donor, the paid leave of absence granted to the employee prior to that medical determination is not forfeited. RETIREMENT PROGRAM HUC is a member of the State Public Employees Retirement Association ("PERA") and also participates in the federal FICA (Social Security) program. Full-time employees must become members of PERA effective the date of employment. Both HUC and the employee contribute to PERA. Information on PERA is available from Human Resources. DEFERRED COMPENSATION HUC offers a 457 deferred compensation plan, which allows employees to place a portion of their earnings through payroll deduction into a tax deferred investment program.

HUC will not require an employee to disclose details related to domestic abuse, sexual assault, or stalking or the details of the employee's or the employee's family member's medical condition. In accordance with state law, HUC will not require an employee using Earned Sick and Safe leave to find a replacement worker to cover the hours the employee will be absent. Retaliation prohibited HUC shall not discharge, discipline, penalize, interfere with, or otherwise retaliate or discriminate against an employee for asserting Earned Sick and Safe Leave rights, requesting an Earned Sick and Safe Leave absence, or pursuing remedies. Additionally, it is unlawful to report or threaten to report a person or a family member's immigration status for exercising a right under Earned Sick and Safe Leave. Any employee who believes that they have been wrongfully denied ESST, retaliated, or discriminated against for requesting or using ESST must immediately notify Human Resources. The use of ESST will not be factored into any attendance point system the Utility may use. An employee has the right to file a complaint or bring a civil action if ESST is denied by the Utility or if the employee is retaliated against for requesting or using ESST. An employee injured by a violation of this policy pursuant to sections §§ 181.9445 - 181.9448 may file a complaint with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry and bring a civil action to recover any and all damages recoverable by law. Questions regarding ESST or this policy should be directed to Human Resources. Employees may contact the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry's Labor Standards Division at 651-284- 5075 or li. tea, �-,stan , s,Ci),state.mn.�us or visit the department's earned sick and safe time web a e at d i m a� /��ci< e. ✓e. P g................................................................. Benefits and return to work protections During an employee's use of Earned Sick and Safe Leave, an employee will continue to receive HUC's employer insurance contribution as if they were working, and the employee will be responsible for any share of their insurance premiums. An employee returning from time off using accrued Earned Sick and Safe Leave is entitled to return to their HUC employment at the same rate of pay received when their leave began, plus any automatic pay adjustments that may have occurred during the employee's time off. Seniority during Earned Sick and Safe Leave absences will continue to accrue as if the employee has been continually employed. When there is a separation from employment with HUC and the employee is rehired again within 180 days of separation, previously accrued Earned Sick and Safe Leave that had not been used will be reinstated. An employee is entitled to use and accrue Earned Sick and Safe Leave at the commencement of reemployment. Disclaimer This policy is not a contract for employment. The Utility periodically may update this policy and reserves the right to interpret the policy as well as replace, modify, or revoke it at any time, upon reasonable notice. SICKNACATION LEAVE DONATION The HUC recognizes that a catastrophic illness and/or serious health condition of an employee or immediate family member (spouse or dependent child) may deplete an employee's available paid leave (sick/vacation/compensatory time). This policy is meant to provide employees with the option of assisting fellow employees at such a time. HUC employees having accrued sick or vacation leave shall be allowed to donate a portion of such accrued leave to fellow employees experiencing a catastrophic illness and/or serious health condition suffered by the employee, the employee's spouse, or the employee's dependent child(ren). A catastrophic illness and/or serious health condition includes but is not limited to, heart attack, stroke, organ transplant, or other life threatening illness or debilitating condition as defined by a physician's diagnosis. The donation of leave from one employee to another shall be subject to the following terms and conditions. 1. An employee is only eligible to receive donated leave for time lost from normal work hours due to a life threatening disease or condition as defined above. 2. An employee shall be eligible to receive donated leave only after the employee's accrued sick, vacation, and compensatory time have been exhausted. 3. All requests to receive donated leave must be in writing to human resources/payroll and must be accompanied by supporting medical data. No full time employee shall be allowed to receive more than a total of twenty (20) work days or 160 hours of donated leave per single major life threatening disease or condition unless requested and approved by the General Manager. There is no limit on catastrophic events per year. 4. An employee may only use donated leave up to the time of eligibility for a long-term disability benefit (if applicable), or for the maximum number of days allowed to be donated, whichever occurs first. 5. A full time employee may donate no more than sixteen (16) hours of leave per calendar year to a single fellow employee. This shall not be construed to prohibit donating sixteen (16) hours per year to additional employees. Leave donation shall be calculated using time and not an equivalent cash amount. 6. An employee who is donating paid leave must do so from the employee's accrued sick and/or vacation leave balance. A written request to donate leave must be made to human resources/payroll on forms designated by HUC for that purpose. All donations made shall be kept confidential. 7. The General Manager shall have the right to deny use of donated leave or limit its use if it is determined to be in the best interests of HUC. Donated leave shall be subtracted from the donor's accumulated balance and added to the requested employee as part of the payroll function. Donated time shall be processed and used by the date of submission until the eligible amount of donated leave is reached. Contributions of leave hours exceeding the eligible amount shall be returned to the donating employee, and shall not be transferred. Donated hours shall be used in the order they are received. WORKPLACE ACCOMMODATION HUC shall make workplace accommodations in accordance with state and federal law. An employee who believes he or she qualifies for a reasonable accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) shall submit a request for accommodations to the General Manager. HUC shall engage in an interactive process with employees who request accommodation in order to identify the specific physical and mental abilities and limitations as they relate to essential job functions; barriers to the performance of essential job functions; and how these barriers could be overcome with reasonable accommodation. The employee may be requested to provide written documentation from a healthcare provider relating to the employee's medical condition and request for accommodation. If an employee refuses to provide such written documentation and/or sign an authorization allowing HUC to contact the healthcare provider, HUC will evaluate the employee's request based on the information available to HUC. HUC shall, in the process of evaluating potential accommodations, determine which, if any, potential accommodations present an undue hardship to HUC or the department in which the employee works. UNPAID EXTENDED LEAVE OF ABSENCE The General Manager may grant an employee's request for an extended leave of absence without pay. The unpaid leave of absence shall be a minimum length of one month and a maximum length of six months. Employees on an extended leave of absence for one month or longer which is not governed by the FMLA, are required to pay the full cost of any health, long-term disability or life insurance premium during the leave of the absence. Employees on unpaid leave of absence shall not earn vacation and sick leave. No employee shall be granted a leave of absence in order to accept a different position with another employer. Acceptance of a full-time position with another employer shall be deemed a resignation of the employee's position with RUC. FAMILY DEATH See Union Contract. EMERGENCY LEAVE The General Manager may approve time off without pay to an employee who has no vacation or compensatory time available, if in the General Manager's discretion, the employee is experiencing an emergency requiring the employee's attention. MILITARY LEAVE HUC shall comply with Minnesota statutes relating to military leave. JURY, WITNESS OR BOARD DUTY A regular full-time and part-time employee called to jury duty will be granted paid leaves of absence. Employees are required to notify their supervisor as soon as possible after receiving notice to report for jury duty. Such employees will be required to turn over any compensation they receive for jury duty, minus mileage reimbursement, to HUC in order to receive their regular wages for the period. Time spent on jury duty will not be counted as time worked in computing overtime. Employees excused or released from jury duty during their regular working hours will report to their regular work duties as soon as reasonably possible or will take accrued vacation or compensatory time to make up the difference. Employees will be paid their regular wage to testify in court for HUC-related business or to serve on a work -related board or committee which pays a per diem. Any compensation received for court appearances (e.g. subpoena fees) or as meeting per diems arising out of or in connection with HUC employment, minus mileage reimbursement, must be turned over to HUC. VOLUNTEER FIRE OR RESCUE SQUAD DUTY In the event of an HUC emergency, the General Manager reserves the right to retain essential employees from Hutchinson volunteer fire or rescue squad duties or require employees to return to their HUC duties and assist the operation of HUC. HUC employees who are called out as members of the Hutchinson volunteer fire or rescue squad while on duty with HUC will be paid up to four hours regular pay while on the emergency call. SCHOOL CONFERENCE LEAVE Any employee who has worked half-time or more may take unpaid leave for up to a total of sixteen (16) hours during any 12-month period to attend school conferences or classroom activities related to the employee's child (under 18 or under 20 and still attending secondary school), provided the conference or school related activities cannot be scheduled during non - work hours. When the leave cannot be scheduled during non -work hours and the need for the leave is foreseeable, the employee must provide reasonable prior notice of the leave and make a reasonable effort to schedule the leave so as not to disrupt unduly the operations of HUC. Employees may choose to use vacation leave hours or compensatory time for this absence, but are not required to do so. BONE MARROW/ORGAN DONATION LEAVE Employees working an average of 20 or more hours per week must be granted paid leave, not to exceed 40 hours unless agreed to by HUC, to undergo medical procedures to donate bone marrow or to donate an organ or partial organ. HUC may require a physician's verification of the purpose and length of the leave requested. If there is a medical determination that the employee does not qualify as a bone marrow or organ donor, the paid leave of absence granted to the employee prior to that medical determination is not forfeited. RETIREMENT PROGRAM HUC is a member of the State Public Employees Retirement Association ("PERA") and also participates in the federal FICA (Social Security) program. Full-time employees must become members of PERA effective the date of employment. Both HUC and the employee contribute to PERA. Information on PERA is available from Human Resources. DEFERRED COMPENSATION HUC offers a 457 deferred compensation plan, which allows employees to place a portion of their earnings through payroll deduction into a tax deferred investment program. Taxes on money set aside are deferred until the time the money is withdrawn. HUC does not contribute to this 457 deferred compensation plan. For enrollment information, contact payroll. PERSONAL USE OF UTILITY FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT No employee may use HUC facilities or equipment for personal use. REQUIRED CLOTHING HUC will provide employees required uniforms and safety clothing at no cost to the employee. This clothing may differ by Department. See Staff Personnel for a list of the clothing HUC will provide to those employees. All clothing issued to employees by HUC may only be worn while the employee is on -duty for HUC. Failure to wear flame resistant clothing at the appropriate times is a violation of HUC policy and will subject the employee to discipline. RECOGNITION POLICY — SERVICE AWARDS AND RETIREMENT GIFTS Obiective Service awards and retirement gifts are provided to recognize and reward employees for service with the company. Awards are granted without regard to position or salary. Scope of Policy Full-time, active employees are eligible for a service award for every five (5) years of service completed.
