Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 17, § 2149. Use of sick leave; non-teaching personnel

B. The minimum charge for sick leave shall be four hours ( 1/2 day) and if more, shall be charged in hour increments to the nearest hour.

C. The employee may use sick leave for maternity purposes when postnatal or prenatal condition of the employee prevents the performance of usual duties provided the employee has sufficient sick leave credit. The limit to the use of sick leave for a postnatal condition is six weeks except if a physician certifies inability to return to work.

E. Upon death or retirement of an unclassified employee, sick leave accrued to his credit shall be computed and the value thereof shall be paid to him provided that the sick leave had been accrued under established leave regulations and a daily attendance record has been maintained for the employee by his supervisor, except that such payment shall not exceed the value of twenty-five working days computed on the basis of a five-day week and on a four-week per month basis for personnel employed on a less than twelve-month employment basis and on the basis of a five-day week and fifty-two week year for twelve-month employees. The rate of pay shall be computed utilizing the base rate the employee is receiving at the time of termination.
