After the contracts expired, management at DOC came out with new work rules. One changes was that if fired the employee lost all accumulated sick leave hours. Quite chilling when an employee has accrued a substantial number of hours.<br /> <br />Agree that accrual of sick leave hours to pay for health insurance is probably on their agenda. <br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3426800777521979578.post-63552744991294740702015-10-06T11:59:57.213-05:002015-10-06T11:59:57.213-05:00If my memory is still intact after these years of ...If my memory is still intact after these years of Walker, this change happened after Act 10 was in place for some time.

I figure booting the sick leave benefit is in the long-range plan, but as far as I know it's still there for retirement as of now.Jake formerly of the LPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15660401299391001751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3426800777521979578.post-45311012869113750012015-10-05T13:59:21.427-05:002015-10-05T13:59:21.427-05:00A Walker new era rule: fired state employees lose ...A Walker new era rule: fired state employees lose all accumulated sick that is converted to pay for health insurance upon retirement.<br /><br />I retired last week, couldn't afford to risk losing all the sick leave I accumulated. Only caring employees with very good attendance are able to save these hours.
