This bill establishes a sick leave bank specifically for Esther Odufuwa, an employee of the Massachusetts Department of Mental Health. It allows other employees within the department to voluntarily contribute their sick, personal, or vacation days to this bank for Odufuwa's use. The bill emphasizes that the establishment of this sick leave bank is urgent and necessary for public convenience, thus declaring it an emergency law.
Additionally, the bill outlines that if Odufuwa either terminates her employment or requests the dissolution of the sick leave bank, any remaining days in the bank will be transferred to the extended illness leave bank. It also specifies that the sick leave bank days cannot be used for absences unrelated to the illness or disability that led to the creation of the bank, as determined by the Department of Mental Health.
