The Commonwealth of Massachusetts _______________ In the One Hundred and Ninety-Third General Court (2023-2024) _______________ An Act establishing a sick leave bank for Anthony Fannoh, Jr. an employee of the Department of Mental Health.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows: 1 Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, the department of mental 2health shall establish a sick leave bank for Anthony D. Fannoh, Jr, an employee of the 3department at the Worcester recovery center and hospital. Any employee of the department may 4voluntarily contribute 1 or more sick, personal or vacation days to the sick leave bank for use by 5Anthony D. Fannoh, Jr. If Anthony D. Fannoh, Jr terminates employment with the department or 6requests to dissolve the sick leave bank, any remaining time in the sick leave bank shall be 7transferred to the extended illness leave bank. Sick leave bank days shall not be used for 8absences unrelated to the illness or disability that necessitated the establishment of the sick leave 9bank as determined by the department.
