Discussion and possible action regarding the Sick Leave section of the Handbook to replace recently adopted language which indicates reasons for taking sick leave with the former Interim Handbook language regarding reasons for taking sick leave. Effectively, replace the four bullet items which read: · Personal illness. · Illness of a spouse, child, parent, or legal dependent. · Personal medical, dental, or vision appointments · Medical, dental, or vision appointments of a spouse, child, parent, or legal dependent. with 1. Personal illness and medical, dental, vision appointments. 2. Illness and medical, dental, vision appointments of a spouse, child, parent, step-parent, parents-in-law, grandchild, grandparent, grandparent-in-law, brother, sister, step-child, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, daughter-in law, son-in-law or any individual residing in the employee’s home as a member of the employee’s household, as well as foster children and legal wards even if they do not live in the household. Other language in the Sick Leave section would remain unchanged. Item requested by Lee Ann Hinds, Oklahoma County Assessor's Office
