Agenda Report # 57



TO: Mayor and Council



SUBJECT: Unused Sick Leave Payment



INITIATED: Human Resources Department



Recommendation: Approve a resolution authorizing payment to employees for

unused sick leave in accordance with 16B-15-6(2) of the Columbus Code of

Ordinances.



Background: It has been past practice that: When a City official or an

employee shall have accumulated thirty (30) days of sick leave by the end of

the last bi-weekly pay period in November, he/she may be paid in cash each year

by December 25 for one fourth (1/4) of accumulated sick leave beyond the base

thirty (30) days, not to exceed 13 days.



Analysis: As part of the FY2007 Budget, $ 365K was allocated to pay for this

benefit. The required expenditure may or may not exceed this amount.



Legal: The requested expenditure requires Council approval.



Financial Considerations: None, other than as noted in the analysis.



Recommendation/Actions: Human Resources recommend the approval of the

resolution.
