• A. 90
• B. 300
• C. 180
• D. 365

Answer: (C)

Salary continuation during serious on-duty injury is guaranteed to keep an officer’s earnings stable while they recover. Article 33 Section 2 provides 100% of the base pay for that injury, and the period is measured in calendar days. The limit is 180 calendar days, meaning up to six months of full base pay, excluding overtime or additional pays. After those 180 days, the contract shifts to a different benefit level as defined by the agreement. The term “calendar days” includes every day, not just business days, so the full six-month window is counted regardless of weekends or holidays.
