A.
It
is hereby declared to be the policy and purpose of the City of Frontenac,
Missouri, as a part of the compensation of its employees, to contribute
to the cost of a plan, including a plan underwritten by insurance
which shall provide for claims and technical services, covering all
of its employees for occupational disease, personal injury or death
by accident arising out of and in the course of the employment of
said employee, and to appropriate and utilize its revenues and other
available funds for these purposes. The benefits payable pursuant
to said plan shall be the same as those benefits designated for employees
in Chapter 287, RSMo. 1969, as amended, entitled "The Workers' Compensation
Law".
B.
In
addition to other benefits provided under the Workers' Compensation
Law, any employee who is prevented from returning to work as a result
of personal injury by accident or occupational disease arising out
of and in the course of employment shall receive for the first (1st)
ninety (90) days of his/her unemployment the greater of his/her present
salary or his/her salary continuation benefit provided under the Workers'
Compensation Law, but in no event shall the employee receive both.
C.
An
injury arising out of and in the course of employment shall not count
against an employee's accumulated sick leave unless after the first
(1st) ninety (90) days the employee has not been released by his/her
physician. At that time and for the duration of his/her accumulated
sick leave the employee may elect to receive the greater of his/her
normal salary or his/her salary continuation benefit provided under
the Workers' Compensation Law, but in no event shall the employee
receive both.
D.
If
there shall arise a difference of opinion between the employee's physician
and the City's insurer's physician with respect to the employee's
ability to return to active employment, then the City may, at its
option, select a physician of its choice to examine the employee.
The City's physician's opinion shall be controlling as to whether
or not the employee shall return to work.
E.
The
City reserves the right to recover from employees that amount of the
employee's normal salary which is in excess of the amount required
under the Workers' Compensation Law when an employee's claim for Workers'
Compensation is concluded.
