For anyone considering resignation or retirement, please be
aware of the criteria to sick leave buy back. From the GESD Employee Handbook:
Upon resignation, retirement, or death, each classification of
employee (or his/her estate) will be reimbursed for accumulated
sick leave based on the first range of the employee’s classified salary grade
or $90 per day, whichever is less. There is a limit to
the number of days which will be reimbursed (see page 43 of
the GESD Employee Handbook) and employees must have at
least ten (10) consecutive years of employment in
the district to be eligible for this enumeration. A contract year equals a year
of employment for purposes of this policy.
Example: The employee is required to complete ten (10) or
more school years first to last day to qualify or must resign/retire on the
anniversary date to receive his/her ten (10) year sick leave buyback. A request for sick leave buy back must be
presented in writing to the Human Resources Department by March 20 of the year
in which the resignation is to occur. Anyone submitting a request after
March 20 will be paid the following year. When extenuating circumstances
preclude such notification by the above-noted time line, consideration will be
given to applicant depending on the availability of funds. If funds are
unavailable, applicant will be paid the following year.
