I hereby indicate my desire
to begin participation in the East Side Teachers Association Sick Leave
Bank. I understand that in order to
begin to participate I must have at least one unused sick leave day at the time
of joining. I also understand that my
participation will initially and irrevocably transfer one of my current sick
leave days to the Sick Leave Bank, and that further annual contributions will
be subject to the terms set forth in the Side Letter Of
Agreement between the East Side Teachers Association and the
Signature:

1. Participation in the ESTA Sick Leave Bank is
voluntary, but one must be a participant in order to qualify for withdrawal of
sick leave days in the event of a serious illness or family calamity. We cannot waive the timelines for indicating
a desire to participate.
2. Once an individual begins participation in
the Sick Leave Bank program, that person’s membership in the program continues
into subsequent years unless the participant notifies the District Human
Relations Office of a desire not to participate further. Such notification must be made in writing by
the last working day in September each year.
3. Participants may apply to withdraw sick leave
days from the Bank on a form which is available from the ESTA Sick Leave Bank
Committee or online at www.eastsideta.org
. Each application is
discretely and carefully reviewed for need and circumstances by the Committee,
which may or may not grant the request.
