Allows the Director of Central Management Services to set, by administrative rule, the amount of compensated time that an employee may use to donate blood. Acknowledges that technology may advance at a rate that outpaces the General Assembly's ability to address those advances legislatively. Provides that, to the extent that the Act may not expressly apply to those technological advances, the Act should nonetheless be interpreted to further the declared policy of the Act. Defines the terms "blood" and "organ". Effective immediately.</SynopsisText></synopsis>
