Legislative Intent

It is the intent of I Liheslaturan Guåhan to allow employees who have been certified as having a catastrophic illness to receive donated sick leave in excess of the maximum allowed under the Family and Medical Leave Act of twelve

(12)weeks in any twelve

(12)month period. I Liheslatura intends to create a separate pool into which donated sick leave hours may be deposited in order to accomplish this intent. The procedures on accessing these donated hours shall mirror the established procedures for leave sharing, with the exception of the cap on the number of weeks that an employee can receive in donated hours, the number of weeks that can be donated, and the need to designate the recipient of the donated hours.
