Sick Leave Pool Enrollment

Open from September 1st through September 30th

Did you know... that since the Sick Leave Pool’s inception the Committee has awarded 12,373 days to teachers with catastrophic illness or injury

In 1998 your CCEA Negotiations Team bargained with the district to create the Sick Leave Pool—giving teachers with catastrophic illness or injury access to additional sick leave days above those they had accrued.

Enrollment in the Sick Leave Pool is voluntary.  The open enrollment period is September 1 through September 30 of each school year.  Enrollment is open to any teacher who has accrued six (6) days of unused sick days as of September 1.  One (1) sick leave day is deducted from each teacher who joins the pool.  You need only enroll in the pool once.  If you have not previously joined the pool and would like to now, please fill out the form below and mail it to CCEA—school mail or U.S. mail (4230 McLeod Drive, Las Vegas, NV 89121).  Remember, the deadline to receive your form is September 30, 2010.

Not sure if you have previously joined the Pool, please call CCEA at 733-3063 and we will be happy to check enrollment for you.

Teachers with a catastrophic illness or injury and who have enrolled in the Pool can apply to the Sick Leave Pool Committee for days once their own sick and personal leave is exhausted.  Immediate family members are not covered under this provision and lifetime usage of the Pool is limited to 100 days maximum per person.
