Section 3436 - Limited Term Light Duty Assignments
(a) A Limited Term Light Duty Assignment (LTLDA) temporarily allows an employee with documented temporary medical limitation(s) or restriction(s), that affects the ability to perform one or more of the essential functions and requires the waiver of one or more essential functions of the employee's current classification and position, to remain working or return to work after an injury or illness. A LTLDA is intended for utilization when employees cannot be accommodated with a reasonable accommodation.
(b) A Hiring Authority may authorize a LTLDA in a budgeted position or post as a transitional, short-term program to employees who are expected to be returned to regular-duty status within the time frames specified in Section 3436(c).
(c) A Limited Term Light Duty Assignment (LTLDA) shall not exceed 90 calendar days. Extensions will be considered case-by-case, based on a written request from the employee and supporting documentation from the employee's health care provider. However, in no circumstance shall an extension be granted if it would make the total duration of a LTLDA, Temporary Modified Work Assignment (TMWA) (as defined in Section 3436.1), or any combination of the two, exceed 360 days for the same injury or illness.
(d) A LTLDA is not a right or entitlement, but is based on assignment availability and operational needs.
(e) LTLDA assignments shall be made based on the employee's medical limitation(s) or restriction(s), employee's classification, and the needs of the Department.
(f) Employees placed in a LTLDA shall maintain all mandatory professional licensure, certification, training, and qualifications appropriate to their regular-duty classification provided the professional licensure, certification, training, or qualifications are not in conflict with any documented medical limitation(s) or restriction(s).
(g) LTLDA assignments would generally be to assignments with limited inmate contact and that are less strenuous than the employee's regular assignment.
