The bill proposes the establishment of a sick leave bank specifically for David A. Russell, an employee of the Department of Corrections (DOC) in Massachusetts. It allows other employees within the DOC to voluntarily contribute their sick, personal, or vacation days to this bank for Russell's use. The bill emphasizes that the sick leave bank is an emergency measure, necessary for the immediate preservation of public convenience, and it is enacted notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that if David A. Russell either terminates his 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 clarifies 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 DOC.
