Upon reinstatement, an employee's salary will be computed on the basis of the last salary earned plus any increment or other salary increase to which the employee would have been entitled during the disability covered by Workers' Compensation. Employees on Workers' Compensation Leave who elect not to use accumulated sick and vacation leave as a supplemental payment, shall retain and continue to earn all leave credits during the period of disability. In addition, the County shall continue its contribution to the employee's health insurance.

The Workers' Compensation initial waiting period will be recorded as administrative leave and not charged to employee accrued leave or compensatory time.
