               §11.8 Mandatory Alternate Duty

               (a)  The parties  agree  to develop, as soon  as possible,  a mandatory
            alternate duty policy for employees who request or are directed to return to

            work  after  suffering  an  occupational  injury  or  disease.  The  Mandatory
            Alternate Duty Policy will allow management to recall an employee to duty

            and will allow an eligible employee to request to return to duty subject to
            the eligibility  criteria in  the policy. The basic tenets of  the Mandatory

            Alternate Duty Policy shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
               (1) An employee’s level of disability must be classified as 50 percent or

            less disabled by the State Insurance Fund.
               (2) Mandatory alternate duty assignments shall be based upon medical

            documentation             satisfactory        to     management.             Such       satisfactory
            documentation must include a prognosis of a return to the full duties of the

            injured worker’s original job within 60 calendar days from the date upon

            which the alternate duty assignment begins. Time limits, consistent with or
            similar to those contained in Article 10.17 of the Administrative Services
            Unit Agreement or as developed jointly by the parties, will be utilized for

            those situations when the State requires that an employee be medically

            examined. Medical documentation shall not be reviewable under Article
            34 of the Agreement.

               (3) Management shall have the authority to make mandatory alternate
            duty assignments to tasks that  can be performed by the  employee not

            necessarily within their original job duties, title series, work schedule, work
            location or workweek.

               (4) Mandatory alternate duty assignments shall be for a period up to 60
