12.02.1. The indemnities paid under the sixth paragraph of section 9.06 or the third paragraph of section 9.09 are deducted from the employee’s accumulated leave hour credits.
However, if the indemnities are paid to the employee when he has not yet acquired regular status, or when the balance of his leave credit is insufficient or zero, they are deducted from the leave hour credit subsequently accumulated by the employee.
Despite the foregoing, no employer may require or obtain by any other means the reimbursement of the indemnities paid to the employee during the year under the sixth paragraph of section 9.06 or the third paragraph of section 9.09 when the employee has not yet acquired regular status, or when the balance of his leave credit is insufficient or zero, on the ground that the indemnities could not be reimbursed under the second paragraph of this section.
