1. WORKERS’ COMPENSATION PAYROLL ADMINISTRATION (951) 827-3307

2. IF NO LOST TIME PAST DATE OF INJURY The payroll process doesn’t change Monitor for possible future lost time Encourage department to follow Mandatory Return to Work guidelines: >To prevent Lost Workdays >To reduce cost to employee, Department & Workers’ Compensation program >To keep payroll process simple & continuous

3. IF LOST TIME PAST DATE OF INJURY … SALARY OPTIONS PRIOR TO APPROVAL OF THE CLAIM Employee will need to request the use of sick, vacation or compensatory leave while he is temporarily disabled. If sick leave or vacation leave is used a portion of those hours will be re-credited (claim must be accepted by Sedgwick CMS for re-crediting of hours to occur) If compensatory leave is used, those hours will not be re-credited If employee has exhausted his sick leave and the claim has been approved, he is eligible to receive Extended Sick Leave (ESL )

5. AFTER THE CLAIM IS APPROVED Temporary Disability (TD) checks are paid when Sedgwick CMS accepts the claim and the treating physician certifies the illness or injury is causing the employee to lose time from work TD is not paid for first 3 days after the date of injury (waiting period) unless:  an employee is hospitalized as an inpatient, or  an employee is off work for more than 14 days

6. AFTER THE CLAIM IS APPROVED……. continued TD checks go directly to employee Amount is determined by law, based on the employee’s average weekly earnings Approximately two-thirds of the employee’s actual wage loss, up to a maximum weekly rate: injury or illness prior to 1/1/2003 = $490/weekly limit injury or illness on or after 1/1/2003 = $602/weekly limit injury or illness on or after 1/1/2004 = $728/weekly limit injury or illness on or after 1/1/2005 = $840/weekly limit

7. AFTER THE CLAIM IS APPROVED... continued WHILE RECEIVING BOTH TD AND UCR CHECKS Initially, the employee will be receiving temporary disability checks from Sedgwick CMS and UCR (by using sick, vacation, compensatory leave or ESL benefits). In order to prevent an overpayment, the Payroll Office will deduct Sedgwick CMS payments from UCR wages. While using sick, vacation compensatory leave, the employee will receive a net of 100% of their usual earnings between the 2 checks. When only receiving ESL benefits, this process will net the employee approximately 80% of their usual earnings.

8. AFTER THE CLAIM IS APPROVED ……..continued Department is required to obtain a signed authorization form from employee (See Appendix Page… - Sick/Leave Authorization Letter) The employee has 3 options to choose from for the continuation of their salary: Option 1 – Use sick and vacation leave to supplement TD checks Option 2 – Use sick leave only to supplement TD checks Option 3 – Use no leave accruals – take Leave Without Pay

9. OPTION 1 – USE BOTH SICK AND VACATION LEAVE Salary issues – Department will use sick leave first and then vacation leave to supplement TD checks. TD payments will be deducted from UCR paychecks. Benefit issues – Medical, Dental and Vision premiums will continue to be paid by department Leave Accruals – Will earn both sick and vacation at normal rate (100%) Can be used as it is earned. This will continue until accruals are exhausted. Retirement Credits – Will earn 100% Holidays – Will be paid at 100%

10. OPTION 2 – USE SICK LEAVE ONLY Everything will work the same as Option 1 except vacation leave will not be used, only sick leave. Only Option 1 and 2 will permit the employee to receive Extended Sick Leave benefits.

11. OPTION 3 – USE NO LEAVE ACCRUALS – TAKE LEAVE WITHOUT PAY (LWOP) Salary issues – Employee will receive TD checks from Sedgwick CMS and no salary from UCR Benefit issues – Employee will be required to pay the full cost of dental and vision coverage. Medical insurance premiums may be covered by the Health Contingency fund. If eligible for Family Medical Leave (FML), all insurance premiums can be paid by UCR up to 12 weeks. Leave Accruals – Employee will earn sick and vacation leave at the normal rate, but it will not be credited until they return to work. If separation happens before they return to work, vacation hours earned while on LWOP are not owed. Retirement Credits – Will not earn. Holidays – Will not be paid.

12. EXTENDED SICK LEAVE Policy 44 C – Personnel Policies for Staff Members Eligible employees receive 80% of their basic salary called Extended Sick Leave (ESL) for up to 26 weeks per injury while they are out. Eligibility for ESL is based on the following: Employee must be receiving TD payments Employee must exhaust all of his accrued sick leave

13. EXTENDED SICK LEAVE…. continued Benefit issues – UCR will continue to pay medical, dental and vision premiums. Leave issues – Employee continues to accrue sick and vacation leave at normal rate, but these hours will not be credited until he returns to work. Employee cannot use accrued sick/ vacation until he returns. If separation occurs vacation hours earned will be paid to the employee. Retirement Service Credit – Will earn at 80% > (See Buy Back – Appendix Page…) Holidays – Paid at 80%

14. After EXTENDED SICK LEAVE… If employee remains disabled after ESL is exhausted, they will be placed on LWOP. UCR checks will cease, TD checks will continue. Employee will be required to pay full cost of dental and vision insurances. Medical insurance premiums may be covered by the Health Contingency fund.
