A classified employee appointed to an unpaid position with a city, county or state committee, board or commission, or who is serving as an officer or on a board, excluding advisory or adjunct, in a community organization, may request civic leave with pay on the appropriate form provided by the Human Resources Division. Human Resources reviews the request and forwards those recommended for approval to the Lincoln Board of Education. The maximum time approved for paid civic leave will not exceed the equivalent of one (1) work day or eight (8) hours per month.
A classified employee requesting or taking leave under this regulation with pay shall be required to keep the School District informed and disclose to the School District any pay or funds received while on civic leave. The Associate Superintendent for Human Resources or designee will make the determination of whether or not reimbursement is necessary.
