Purpose
The purpose of this policy is to provide income protection to eligible faculty and staff during periods of prolonged incapacity (more than 5 consecutive days) that is not work related.
All regular full-time (1462 hours per year and above) employees who have completed at least 90 days of employment prior to an absence covered by this policy are eligible for Salary Continuation. If incapacity results from an automobile accident or some other incident for which an insurance company would normally reimburse lost wages, payment of Salary Continuation will be secondary to lost wage payments by the insurance company. Prior to providing Salary Continuation in such cases, the College may require proof from the employee that payment for lost wages has not been made and will not be forthcoming from a third party. If an employee receives a lost wage settlement from a third party after Salary Continuation benefits have been paid, the employee will be responsible for reimbursing the College for the amount paid for lost time.
