Catastrophic Leave Bank Program
On September 20, 2013, and with the support of the Board of Supervisors, the County Administrator approved Administrative Procedure 23-46 Catastrophic Leave Bank Program (CAT Bank). CAT Bank is a catastrophic leave contribution program to assist eligible member employees who have a qualifying event and have exhausted all of their accruals (compensatory time, sick leave and annual leave).
Pima County employees, with the exception of Superior Court, Juvenile Court and Clerk of the Superior Court employees, may participate in CAT Bank. Newly hired employees will have sixty (60) calendar days, after date of hire, to enroll in CAT Bank.
To enroll and become a member of CAT Bank, employees complete the Employee Enrollment Contribution Form and contribute sixteen (16) hours of leave accruals (sick and/or annual leave) for full-time enrollment or eight (8) hours of leave accurals for part-time enrollment during their enrollment period. Please review Administrative Procedure 23-46. Any additional questions should be directed to CATBankAdmin@pima.gov.
When a member has a qualifying event and will soon exhaust all leave banks, the member submits a Member Request for CAT Bank Leave Hours Form to the CAT Bank Administrator.
