A grievance is a formal complaint filed by an employee or a group of employees who feel they've been negatively impacted by their employer. It officially claims that your employer violated your workplace contract, the collective bargaining agreement (CBA), or another labor policy. Issues that commonly lead to a grievance include problems with pay, benefits, working conditions, or unfair treatment from supervisors or colleagues.

The District’s policies regarding the allotment, earnings, and management of Personal Illness  and Vacation days for OSAS members are defined below. Please see the table and scenarios  below to illustrate the difference between “preloaded” and “earned” days. 

How Days are Awarded and Earned

As of July 1st, the District preloads all unearned illness and vacation days for the upcoming  fiscal year. While these days are available for immediate use, they are officially earned at a rate  of (2) days per month worked; (1) illness day and (1) vacation day.

Separation and Repayment

If an employee resigns, retires, or is terminated after July 1st, they must repay the District for any front-loaded days that were used but not yet earned based on their length of service during that fiscal year.

Example Scenario: 

An employee resigns effective October 1st.  

They have used: 

(9) Illness days and (5) Vacation days out of their (12) preloaded days. 

Earned at Separation:  

(3) months worked (July, Aug, Sept) = (3) Earned Illness days & (3) Earned  Vacation days. 

Used not Earned:  

  (9) Illness days used - (3) earned days = (6) days due for repayment                                                    (5) Vacation days used - (3) earned days = (2) days due for repayment.

Total Repayment: 

The employee must repay the district for (8) days of pay

Recommendation: It is highly advised that employees contact the DPSCD Payroll Team to review  their current illness and vacation balance prior to resigning to avoid unexpected repayment  obligations. 

Rollover and Banking Policies

The district allows for the rollover of days into the new fiscal year under the following conditions:

Personal Illness Days: Unlimited rollover. If a member's bank exceeds (200) sick days,  the additional days are rolled into a Catastrophe Bank.  

Vacation Days: Members may roll over a maximum of (13) days.  

Personal Business Days

Of the (12) preloaded personal illness days, OSAS members are eligible to use (5) days for  personal business purposes.
