§ 82-496. Payroll and recordkeeping
Latest version.
Accruals and expenditures of sick leave are calculated and maintained by the county auditor's office. For payroll purposes, sick leave shall be expended in no less than one-tenth hour increments. Usage of sick leave shall be reported via the county time and attendance tracking system as designated by the elected official/department head. Under no circumstances shall an employee be placed in a leave of absence without pay status while paid time is available. Supervisors are responsible for approving all sick leave reporting for their departments. However, the supervisors' approval does not excuse the absence unless the absence is related to family and medical leave.
