The provisions of this article shall apply only
to full time, permanent employees in the exempt service of the Borough
of Dumont, who are not covered by collective negotiation agreements
which provide additional pay for overtime work, and shall not apply
to any employee whose termination of service results from a dismissal
for cause other than disability, nor to any employee in a temporary
employment status.
A.
The accrued benefits to which he or she was entitled
as a member of the classified service as of the date he or she became
a covered employee, such benefits to be computed pursuant to ordinance
and/or collective negotiation agreements in effect at the time of
such movement; and
As used in this article, the following terms
shall have the meanings indicated:
The total of the annual sick days to which an employee covered
by this article was entitled during each calendar year of his employment
with the Borough of Dumont, commencing with the commencement of his
employment by the Borough of Dumont, less the number of such sick
days actually used by such employee during each such year.
A.
Notwithstanding any other provision in any other subsection
of this section, payment for accumulated sick days shall be paid at
the earned daily salary rate which the employee received for the period
to which such sick days are attributable.
B.
With respect to any employee to whom the provisions
of this article apply and who would otherwise be entitled to receive
terminal compensation upon the termination of his or her services
with the Borough of Dumont, the Borough Administrator may, at the request of such employee, pay
to such employee all or a portion of the termination compensation
to which such employee would be entitled, unless termination was for
just cause, with respect to any such terminal benefits which would
otherwise be calculated at the salary level of the employee at the
time of the payment of such benefits. Any payments hereunder shall
be credited to and applied against the terminal compensation benefits
which such employee would otherwise have been entitled at the time
of termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the payment
of terminal compensation to the Borough Administrator pursuant to
this subsection shall be subject to the approval of the Borough Council.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require the Borough Council
or the Borough Administrator to authorize the payment of terminal
compensation prior to an employee's termination of employment with
the Borough of Dumont.
