    We received many questions about tentative agreements on Section 16: Sick Leave/On the Job Injury and Section 32: Attendance Policy. This update helps explain legal requirements of sick leave and clarify the proposed differences between State Bank and CBA Bank. We also discuss the bargaining priorities management had for this section, and summarize where we end up: which provisions were improved/gained, which were maintained, and which were modified.
