BONE MARROW/ORGAN DONATION LEAVE
Policy 6.39
1) POLICY
a) An employee will be given a paid leave of absence to undergo a medical procedure to donate
bone marrow or an organ. The combined length of the leave shall be determined by the
employee, but may not exceed 40 work hours, unless agreed to by the city. The city may
require verification by a physician of the purpose and length of each leave requested by the
employee to donate bone marrow. If there is a medical determination that the employee
does not qualify as a bone marrow donor, the paid leave of absence granted to the employee
prior to that medical determination is not forfeited.
b) For purposes of such leave "employee" means a person who works for the city an average of 20
or more hours per week.
