Pay Upon Return From a Leave.
An employee who returns from a leave of absence without pay to a position within the same pay grade shall be returned to the same pay rate that she/he was in before going on leave. When a general pay increase occurs while the employee is on leave, her/his pay upon reinstatement will be increased by such general increase. An employee who returns from a leave and is reinstated in a pay grade different from the grade she/he held before going on leave shall have a pay rate established at the time of her/his reinstatement.
