(b) To receive a leave of absence pursuant to subdivision (a), an employee shall provide written verification to the trustees that he or she is an organ or bone marrow donor and that there is a medical necessity for the donation of the organ or bone marrow.
(c) Any period of time during which an employee is required to be absent from his or her position by reason of being an organ or bone marrow donor is not a break in his or her continuous service for the purpose of his or her right to salary adjustments, sick leave, vacation, annual leave, or seniority.
