87408.5
. (a) When a community college district wishes to employ a
retirant who is retired for service, and such person has not been
previously employed as a retirant, such district shall require, as a
condition of initial employment as a retirant, a medical certificate
showing that the retirant is free from any disabling disease
unfitting him or her to instruct or associate with students. The
medical certificate shall be completed and submitted directly to the
community college district by a physician and surgeon licensed under
the Business and Professions Code, a physician assistant practicing
in compliance with Chapter 7.7 (commencing with Section 3500) of
Division 2 of the Business and Professions Code, or a commissioned
medical officer exempted from licensure. A medical examination shall
be required for the completion of the medical certificate. The
examination shall be conducted not more than six months before the
completion and submission of the certificate and shall be at the
expense of the retirant. The medical certificate shall become a part
of the personnel record of the employee and shall be open to the
employee or his or her designee.
(b) The community college district that initially employed the
retirant, or any district that subsequently employs the retirant, may
require a periodic medical examination by a physician and surgeon
licensed under the Business and Professions Code, a physician
assistant practicing in compliance with Chapter 7.7 (commencing with
Section 3500) of Division 2 of the Business and Professions Code, or
a commissioned medical officer exempted from licensure, to determine
that the retirant is free from any communicable disease unfitting him
or her to instruct or associate with students. The periodic medical
examination shall be at the expense of the community college
district. The medical certificate shall become a part of the
personnel record of the retirant and shall be open to the retirant or
his or her designee.
