At Cost Personal Leave
Subject to adequate notice to the Principal and the arrangement of coverage, the Bargaining Unit Member shall be granted an At Cost Personal Day restricted to a maximum of five (5) per year. The timing of such days will avoid extending existing vacation periods. The cost for such a day will be the minimum cost of a qualified occasional teacher (not to exceed 1/194 of Group 3, Year 0) whether the member has been replaced not. The cost to the member for such a day will not exceed 1/194 of the member's annual salary. There will be no deduction from sick leave, and no impact upon pension subject to current Teacher Pension Plan regulations. On any given day no more than three such leaves will be granted at any one site. The application of this clause will not result in on-calls being assigned to members.
