If you choose to go to the doctor during working hours, you must use 1/2 or 1 full sick day.
If your doctor has taken you off work or your restrictions cannot be accommodated, you will use your available accrued sick, personal, or vacation leave for your absences.
Under District policy, if you become eligible to receive temporary income benefits (TIBS) from workers' compensation, you may also be eligible for additional wage benefits if you have available accrued leave. If you do not have available accrued leave, your total income benefits will be paid by workers' compensation on a percentage of your average weekly wage.
If eligible for FMLA, in accordance with the policies, DEC(LEGAL) and DEC(LOCAL) of HEB ISD, Family Medical Leave will begin after the fourth consecutive day of absence and can run concurrently with workers' compensation leave for up to twelve weeks.
