Statute text

(a)An officer or employee who is or may be entitled to temporary disability indemnity under Division 4 (commencing with Section 3200) or Division 4.5 (commencing with Section 6100) of the Labor Code shall receive any accumulated sick leave, or accumulated compensable overtime, or accumulated vacation for the absence. The trustees shall decrease the charge of sick leave, or compensable overtime, or vacation in the amount of temporary disability payment received so that the officer or employee shall not receive payment in excess of full salary or wage. If an officer or employee does not wish to use his or her accumulated sick leave, or accumulated compensable overtime, or accumulated vacation, he or she shall notify his or her appointing power within 15 days after the injury is reported to the appointing power. After the 15 days his or her accumulations shall be used until the date he or she notifies the appointing power in writing that he or she no longer wishes to use the accumulations. When computing sick leave, or overtime, or vacation under this section the employee shall be given credit for any holidays that occur during the period of absence hereunder. He or she is, nevertheless, entitled to medical, surgical, and hospital treatment as provided in the Labor Code. When his or her accumulated sick leave, or overtime, or vacation, or all, are exhausted, he or she is still entitled to receive disability indemnity.

(b)If the provisions of this section are in conflict with the provisions of a memorandum of understanding reached pursuant to Chapter 12 (commencing with Section 3560) of Division 4 of Title 1 of the Government Code, the memorandum of understanding shall be controlling without further legislative action, except that if the provisions of a memorandum of understanding require the expenditure of funds, the provisions shall not become effective unless approved by the Legislature in the annual Budget Act.
