You will be eligible to accrue and use sick leave in accordance with applicable Washington D.C. laws. Generally, this means that you will accrue one hour of sick leave for every 37 hours you work and it is capped at 7 days of leave in any 12-month period. You become eligible to use sick leave after you have been employed by the company for at least 90 days.
An employee may use such leave for the following situations:
physical or mental illness, injury, or medical condition of the employee
to obtain a medical diagnosis or preventative care for the employee
any of the needs listed in (1) and/or (2) for a child, parent, spouse, domestic partner, or other family member of the employee
to obtain care or services related to stalking, domestic violence, or sexual abuse of the employee or their family member
In order to use sick leave you must be scheduled to work an assignment and provide advance notice, as early as possible, to Scoot that you’re unable to complete the scheduled assignment and seek to use your accrued sick leave. This request must be made orally, in writing or by e-mail. Please contact your Scoot Consultant to learn the number of sick leave hours you've accrued.
You may use one to eight hours of sick leave per day.
