Health department would set up leave bank for Julia Matthews

The Department of Public Health would set up a sick leave bank for Julia Matthews. Julia Matthews works for the department, and any department employee could donate days for her use. Employees could choose to give one or more sick, personal, or vacation days.

The department would bar use of bank days for unrelated absences. This limit would apply to days in Julia Matthews's sick leave bank. The department would decide whether an absence relates to the illness or disability that led to the bank.

The department would send any days left in the bank to the extended illness leave bank. This would apply to time left in Julia Matthews's sick leave bank. The transfer would happen if she leaves the department or asks to close the bank.
