          A six-month non-paid leave of absence shall be granted upon request to secretaries who need to care for an ill family member, as defined above in 2a, or any other family member as determined by the Board.

4. Marriage

A maximum of five (5) school days during the year with a deduction of 1/240 for 12-month employees and 1/200 for 10-month employees of the annual salary for each day.
      Military Leaves

b. One or more of the following categories are eligible reasons for taking personal days:
i) Death (Except as indicated in Article IV, B, 2 above.)
ii) Illness (Except personal illness as indicated in Article IV, B, 1.)
iii) Court Order

be made subject to Board approval.

c. Written notice of intention to utilize a personal day must be given in advance to the Personnel Office except in emergencies, in which case the employee will notify the Personnel Office in writing of the fact that the employee has used a personal day.

7. Maternity Leave

The Board shall grant maternity leave without pay to any secretary upon the request subject to the following stipulations and limitations:
          The Board may remove any pregnant secretary from her duties on the basis of pregnancy only for one of the following reasons:
              Her performance substantially declines from the period
preceding pregnancy.
              Her physical condition or capacity renders her incapable of
performing her assigned duties, which shall be deemed to exist if:
(1) the pregnant secretary fails to produce a physician’s certificate
that she is medically able to continue working, or:
    (2) the Board’s physician concludes that she is unable to continue
    working at her assigned position.
          The Board shall grant an unpaid leave of absence for pregnancy and for birth for a period not to exceed one (1) calendar year, plus the current school year, if the following conditions are met.
          Any secretary seeking such leave shall apply to the Board at least sixty (60) days prior to the beginning of the leave for maternity leave. At the time of application, the secretary shall specify in writing the date upon which she wishes to commence leave and the date upon which she wishes to return to work. Both the secretary and her spouse must certify to the Board that the secretary requesting maternity leave for an extended period must be the child-rearing spouse.
      The Board may require any secretary to produce a certificate from a physician
      in support of the requested leave dates. The physician’s certificate is subject
      to agreement by the Board’s physician. Where medical opinion is supportive
      of the leave dates requested, such leave shall be granted by the Board,
      except that the Board may change the requested date upon finding that the
      grant of a leave for the dates stipulated and medically confirmed would
      substantially interfere with the administration of the school.
              Following the grant of such leave to any secretary, the commencement and termination dates thereof may be further extended or reduced for medical reasons upon application by the secretary to the Board. Such extension or reduction shall be granted by the Board for an additional reasonable period of time except that the Board may alter the requested dates upon finding that such extension or reduction would substantially interfere with the administration of the school and provided that such change is not medically contraindicated. The Board may require any secretary to produce a physician’s certificate in support of the requested change and is subject to agreement by the Board’s physician.
          Any secretary granted maternity leave without pay according to the provisions of this section may, at her discretion, elect to substitute all or a portion of her accumulated sick time in lieu thereof and receive full pay and benefits for the same, but only to the extent that the absence from school is a result of pre or post birth illness. It should be presumed that such illness exists for one month before and one month after birth. Any departure from this presumption must be medically substantiated.

e. Upon return from a maternity leave of absence, the secretary shall be
reinstated in her same position.


          The Board is under no compulsion to continue the employment of a non-
tenured secretary beyond the contracted period so long as the non-renewal of
employment is not based solely upon a condition of pregnancy or childbirth.

The maternity leave period shall not be counted for tenure purpose.
          Advancement on the salary guide shall be based upon the date of commencement of the leave of absence. The ten month employee will be granted a full Salary Guide step if he/she commences employment before February 1st and actually works more than ninety (90) school days. Working ninety (90) days or less shall result in no advancement on the Salary Guide. The twelve month employee will be granted a full Salary Guide step if he/she commences employment before January 1st and actually works more than one hundred twenty (120) days. Working one hundred twenty (120) days or less shall result in no advancement on the Salary Guide.
8. Deductions

Any deductions or additions to/from payroll shall be based on 1/240 of annual salary for 12-month employees and 1/200 of annual salary for 10-month employees.

Physician’s Certificate
    The Superintendent or designee may request a physician’s certificate to substantiate absences due to medical reasons in accordance with N.J.S.A. 18A:30-4.

      B. The Board and the Association agree that there shall be no discrimination, and that all practices, procedures and policies of the school system shall clearly demonstrate that there is no discrimination in the hiring, training, assignment, promotion, transfer or disciplining of secretaries or in the application of this Agreement on the grounds of race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, domicile, or marital status.
      C. Board practice, rules, regulations or policies relating to terms and conditions of employment applicable to employees shall continue in force and effect during the terms of this Agreement except as this Agreement shall otherwise provide.

      D. If any provision of this Agreement or any application of this Agreement to any employee or group of employees is held to be contrary to law, then such provision or application shall not be deemed valid and subsisting, except to the extent permitted by law, but all other provisions or applications shall continue in full force and effect.
      E. No secretary shall be reduced in grade or suffer loss of compensation or shall be deprived of any professional advantage without just cause. Any such action taken by the Board or any agent or representative thereof shall be subject to the grievance procedure herein set forth.

      F. When a secretary is advanced from one grade to another, the employee shall remain at the former salary for a period of sixty (60) days.

        the secretary’s personnel file up to twice a year on an appointment basis.

    3. A secretary shall have the right to indicate those documents and/or other materials in their file, which they believe to be obsolete or otherwise inappropriate to retain. Said documents shall be reviewed by the Superintendent or his/her designee and, if in the opinion of the Superintendent they are obsolete or otherwise inappropriate to retain, they shall be destroyed.

    4. No material derogatory to a secretary’s conduct, service, character or personality shall be placed in the employee’s personnel file unless the secretary has had an opportunity to review the material. The secretary shall acknowledge that she has had the opportunity to review such material by affixing her signature to the copy to be filed with the express understanding that such signature in no way indicates agreement with the contents thereof. The secretary shall also have the right to submit a written answer to such material within ten (10) school days following the conference between both parties involved and the employee’s answer shall be reviewed by the Superintendent or his designee and attached to the file copies.

    5. The Board agrees to protect the confidentiality of personal references, academic credentials and other similar documents.

    ARTICLE VII: SENIORITY

    In the event unit members must be laid off as a result of a reduction in force, said layoff will be made on the basis of seniority. Seniority within grouping shall be defined as continuous employment time in the Clifton Public School System in grouping as defined in the recognition clause. In Group I, for the purpose of seniority, ten-month and twelve-month secretaries shall be considered as one position, with the exception of those positions in Group II as listed in the recognition clause. This article does not apply to the copy room clerk.

    Any effected employee who bumps into a lesser salary classification shall retain her previously held salary in the high classification until the salary guide step in the lesser classification surpasses the salary she was earning in the previously held higher classification. In no event shall the salary paid to an employee in a lesser classification be higher than the salary paid on the same step in a high classification.

    In the event a vacancy occurs, laid-off employees shall be entitled to recall in order of seniority in grouping.

    No new bargaining unit member may be hired in grouping while unit members are still on layoff, with the exception of positions covered by Statute Title 18A:17-24.

All accumulated sick time and all other benefits said employee had at the time of layoff shall be restored in their entirety, as well as any new benefits acquired by unit members, upon the return of the employee.

    Notwithstanding any reference to groupings hereinabove, a non-tenured employee shall be laid off prior to any tenured employee being laid off.
