Leave on Medical Invalidation

Public Service Rules

Where a Medical Board finds an officer medically unfit to continue in Service and recommends disengagement, the officer immediately commences vacation leave before retirement. The leave is either deferred leave plus proportionate annual leave or two months, whichever is greater. It begins on the date the Medical Board declares the officer unfit, and retirement takes effect when it expires.
