110 Sick leave entitlements

(1) A NSW Police Force senior executive accrues sick leave on full pay at the rate of 15 days each calendar year.

(2) Sick leave accrued under subsection (1) that is not taken by the senior executive is cumulative.

(3) Sick leave on full pay accrues at the beginning of the calendar year.

(4) However, if a NSW Police Force senior executive is appointed during a calendar year, sick leave on full pay for the remainder of that calendar year accrues on the date the member commences duty at the rate of 1.25 days for each complete month before the next 1 January after the date of appointment.

(5) For a NSW Police Force senior executive employed as a public servant on 1 May 1988—

(a) sick leave on full pay for the calendar year commencing 1 January 1988 accrues at the rate of 10 days per year, and

(b) in addition to the 10 days, the member must be credited with sick leave on full pay in relation to service before 1 May 1988 for the following number of days less the number of days of sick leave on full pay previously granted to the member—

(i) after completion of the first year of service and before completion of the second year of service—20 working days,

(ii) after completion of the second year of service and before completion of the fifth year of service—40 working days,

(iii) after completion of the fifth year of service—60 working days plus an additional 10 working days for each completed year of service thereafter.

(6) Except as otherwise provided by this division or determined by the Commissioner, only service as a member of the NSW Police Force or as a public servant must be taken into account for the purpose of calculating sick leave entitlements.

(7) If sick leave is granted on less than full pay, for the purpose of calculating the amount of sick leave accrued, the amount of sick leave granted must be converted to its full pay equivalent.
