Act Governing the Retirement, Bereavement Compensation, Discharge with Severance Pay Benefits for the Teaching and Other Staff of School Legal Persons and their Respective Private School(s) Article 18

If there is solid evidence that a staff member who has been employed for five years or longer has become unable to competently perform his or her duties because of a physical or mental disability, but the person is unwilling to produce a medical certificate verifying treatment by a hospital that meets or exceeds the hospital assessment standards set by the central competent heath authority, then the staff member shall be ordered to obtain medical treatment, after the private school’s supervisory personnel and human resources personnel have reported the matter to the principal (president) and approval has been given. If after two academic semesters the staff member is still unable to competently perform his or her duties or has still not been treated, the school shall take the initiative to carry out the procedures for the staff member’s mandatory retirement.
