D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 6, r. 6-C230
OAG shall carry employees covered under § 228.1(b) on leave without pay for two (2) years (the "two- (2) year period") from the date of lessening of disability as determined by the Public Sector Workers' Compensation Program or, in the case of an employee holding a temporary or term appointment, until the expiration of the appointment, whichever occurs first.
At the end of the two- (2) year period, an OAG shall separate the employee according to the procedures established in § 1605. An employee holding a temporary or term appointment that expires during the two- (2) year period shall be separated upon the expiration of his or her temporary or term appointment.
While on leave, employees shall be subject to the same terms and conditions of employment as though the disability had not occurred.
When an employee is medically capable of resuming full-time employment, the employee shall be immediately returned to duty in his or her former position, or its equivalent, unless the employee is no longer fit for duty or held a temporary or term appointment that expired. For purposes of this subsection, an equivalent position includes a reassignment or transfer to another position at no less than the employee's preinjury salary.
When an employee is not medically capable of resuming full-time employment because of compensable injury within the two- (2) year period, and is separated pursuant to § 230.2, the employee shall be provided priority consideration for reemployment to the position he or she occupied, or its equivalent, provided he or she is fit for duty and applies for re-employment within thirty (30) days of termination of workers' compensation indemnity payments.
