23 POLICE (PBA-POLICE BENOEVOLENT ASSOCIATION) A unit member injured on the job will continue to be paid in full injury leave for subsequent missed shifts for the first seven (7) calendar days of absence. After the injured employee is out seven (7) calendar days, and is unable to return to work full or light duty, Workers Comp. starts at 66 2/3% of their salary the day after all injury leave has been dispersed. The employee may wish to supplement his/her check up to 33 1/3 % by using their sick or vacation leave. The employee may elect not to supplement their check and just receive the 66 2/3% pay. ***The exception to this rule is, if the police officer is injured by a malicious act, then the officer will get 100% pay. They would get 66 2/3 % from Workers Comp. and the other 33 1/3 % is paid as injury leave by the department any time they are out a scheduled shift. The Police Chief is the one who makes the determination in accordance with F.S (11) on whether the injury was the result of a malicious act. 23
24 FIRE (IAFF-INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FIREFIGHTERS) A unit member injured on the job will continue to be paid in full injury leave for subsequent missed shifts for the first seven (7) calendar days of absence.

The employee may wish to supplement his/her check up to 33 1/3 % by using their sick or vacation leave. The employee may elect not to supplement their check and just receive the 66 2/3% pay during the FMLA period. After the FMLA period has been exhausted the employee is required to supplement with accrued sick and vacation leave. 24
25 NON UNION & LIU (LABORERS INTERNATIONAL UNION) EMPLOYEES THAT WORK TEN OR TWELVE HOUR SHIFTS - Receive 4 work days as injury leave according to their next 4 scheduled shifts. After the injured employee is out 4 scheduled shifts, and is unable to return to work full or light duty, workers comp. starts at 66 2/3% of their salary after all injury leave has been dispersed. The employee may wish to supplement his/her check up to 33 1/3 % by using their sick or vacation leave.

26 NON UNION & LIU (LABORERS INTERNATIONAL UNION) - EMPLOYEES THAT WORK 5 EIGHT-HOUR DAYS Receive 5 work days of injury leave according to their next 5 scheduled work days. After the injured employee is out 5 scheduled work days, and is unable to return to work full or light duty, workers comp. starts at 66 2/3% of their salary after all injury leave has been dispersed.

27 FMLA is any absence beyond 3 days for a serious health condition. This includes a Workers Compensation injury, and subsequent absences due to the injury. The FMLA allotment is 12 weeks annually for eligible employees. NOTE - There are no partial days paid as injury leave only full days! If an employee misses only part of their allotted number of injury leave days at the beginning of the claim the rest of the days are held for later use if needed on this claim. If they are not needed they are not used. Contact Benefits Coordinator at regarding FMLA eligibility. Contact Risk Management regarding Workers Compensation
28 BENEFITS OF THE NEW PROCESS It assures supervisors become immediately aware of accidents and injuries in their work areas and don t find out second hand. Supervisors are actively involved throughout the recovery process. Employees get the medical care they need without making trips back and forth to City Hall. 28
29 KEYS TO MANAGING COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH ON THE JOB INJURIES PROMPT REPORTING PROMPT INVESTIGATION ADDRESSING HAZARDS PROVIDE ALTERNATE DUTY 29
30 WHAT DO I NEED TO DO AS A SUPERVISOR? Get the word out that: 1. Employees are to report accidents and injuries to you immediately. 2. The nurse at City Hall is no longer the contact person for on-the-job injuries and that you will assist them in processing their paperwork and directing them to medical treatment. 3. Employees are to bring back their doctor s note (DWC-25 Form) to you after each appointment. 30
