• Submit requests for sick pay in Kronos just as you would submit other requests for time off. Make sure the sick pay option is selected.
• If you need to leave work due to an illness, submit your request for sick pay when you return to work.

• Sick pay will accrue each pay period based on the number of hours worked during that period.
• Sick pay is used in full-day increments unless you become ill during your shift.
• If you are out of work due to a serious health condition, file for a Leave of Absence with Lincoln Financial Group.

If you have been out of workfor a few days,due to a non-serious, acute health condition*, please follow these three steps:

1. Fill out a Request for Long-Term Sick form
2. Attach ahealth care provider’snote
3. Submit both the form and note to HR or absence@aruplab.com

*Examples of non-serious, acute health condition: colds/flu, headaches (other than migraines), upset stomachs/minor ulcers, earaches, routine dental or orthodontic problems, etc.

What you need to know:

• You cannot submit a request for long term sick to HR, if you are missing work due to surgery or a serious health condition. In these cases you will need to file for FMLA or MLOA
• PTO will be used for the first 2 full shifts and if you have any grandfathered LTS, it will be used beginning on the 3rdday missed. If you do not have PTO, the first 2 full shifts will go unpaid.
• If you don’t have any grandfathered LTS, please work with your supervisor to enter PTO instead of completing the grandfathered LTS form.

You can use any accrued grandfathered long term sick for the unpaid portion of an approved leave of absence for your own medical condition.

Once your leave has been approved by Lincoln, HR will automatically enter any accrued GLTS into your time card as follows:

100% GLTS = 7 day waiting period before short term disability begins

40% GLTS = to supplement 60% short term disability payments from Lincoln

• Bonding time does not qualify for the use of GLTS
• If you are out of work for a few days due to a non-serious, acute health condition, you would need to complete a request for grandfathered LTS form using the process above.
• If you do not have grandfathered LTS, you can choose to use PTO or go unpaid

If eligible, you are able to take up to 120 hours of PPL to bond with the new addition to your family and you will receive 100% of your base pay during that timeframe.

Those employees who work in a state with a similar leave paid by the state, ARUP will make up the difference with up to 100% of your base

• Eligibility: PT and FT employees that have been employed at least 1 year
• You must use PPL within 90 days of bonding eligibility
  • Mothers – bonding starts after disability portion of leave (6 or 8 weeks)
  • Secondary Parent – bonding starts at birth
