Commissioners approve temporary policy to let employees share leave for colleague with medical need

A commissioner proposed allowing employees to donate accrued time off to help a colleague facing a medical-related financial burden; another commissioner seconded the motion and the board approved by voice vote. The motion included a request that a doctor's note be provided for the affected employee's personnel file.

Commissioners discussed administrative details—the motion authorizes sharing of time off and asked staff to draft the documentation procedure so hours are tracked and personnel files are updated accordingly.
