In that decision, it was held that Mr. GarrisOn, a painter at the Naval Air Rework Facility, Marine Corps Air Station, Cherry Point, North'Carolina, was not entitled to the recredit of involuntary sick and annual leave as an employee may be involuntarily placed on sick leave when the cognizant administrative officials determine, based upon competent medical evidence, that the employee is incapacitated for the performance of his assigned duties. Matter of Claudia M. Ferguson, B-186197, July 28, 1.976, and Matter of 4iilliam J. Heisler, 8-181313, February 7, 1975. Copies enclosed. The administrative report shows that the personnel working in the paint shop are required to wear safety goggles. A medical evaluation of August 26, 1976, con- cluded that Mr. Garrison was not physically qualified to safely perform his duties because of his eyesight until he was furnished appropriate safety glasses. The agency states that as there was no suitable position in the Production Department in which Mr. Garrison could be assigned, he was placed on involuntary sick leave beginning August 30, 1976. 5-//3 *7/ * U 1~.- v~. - $ 'I~;
