Leave Benefit Available to Members Who Have Tested Positive for COVID

If a member tests positive for COVID, they are eligible for special leave that will not be deducted from their leave balances. This COVID leave is something we won as a union and is contained in our agreement to reopen for this school year.

According to our COVID agreement, members are required to submit documentation of a positive COVID test result in order to access paid COVID leave.

If you have tested positive for COVID (rapid antigen or PCR), you should report your results to SDUSD Nursing & Wellness. SDUSD employees should use this form to report positive COVID test results, symptoms, and close contacts. Once this information is received, you will be contacted with guidance on your individual case.
