A sickness occurrence is <br /> hereby defined as any continuous absence by an employee from scheduled work periods, whether <br /> for one or more scheduled shifts, for stated reasons of illness, injury or off-the job incurred <br /> disability for which no physician's verifying statement is provided by said employee to the City. <br /> An employee who becomes ill on the job shall not be charged with a sickness occurrence if said <br /> employee works a minimum of two hours on the day of illness or if said employee's immediate <br /> supervisor verifies to the City that said employee was ill. <br /> Section 4. In the absence of evidence of extenuating circumstances an employee who <br /> becomes ill, injured or disabled off-the job shall cause notice thereof to be given to his supervisor <br /> not later than two hours before the beginning of his ne� scheduled duty day.

A physician's statement may be required before sick leave pay is paid. <br /> However, in all cases where four consecutive duty days are missed by an employee due to illness, <br /> injury or disability, a physician's statement shall be required before sick leave pay is paid. Such <br /> statements shall set forth reasons for the employee's inability to perform his duties and shall <br /> become a part of the employee's personnel record. Physician's statements will be used in <br /> determining from time to time whether or not an employee is able to continue the performance of <br /> his duties. <br /> Section 6(a).
