Family Medical Leave Act
The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 was passed by Congress and became effective August 5, 1993. The act allows an employee who has been employed with the university for at least one year and who has worked at least 1250 hours during the past 12 months to take a total of 12 work weeks, paid or unpaid, leave. Leave is granted for any of the following reasons: (1) to care for the employee’s child at birth, or placement for adoption or foster care, (2) to care for the employee’s spouse, son, or daughter, or parent, who has a serious health condition, or (3) for a serious health condition that makes the employee unable to perform the employee’s job. The employee may be required to provide advance leave notice and medical certification. Taking of leave may be denied if requirements are not met. The employee ordinarily must provide 30 days advance notice when the leave is “foreseeable”, and employer may require medical certification to support a request for leave because of a serious health condition, and may require second or third opinions and a fitness for duty report to return to work.
The University observes the following holidays: Independence Day; Labor Day; Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day; New Year’s Day; Martin Luther King Jr. Day; Memorial Day. The President may add or delete special holidays.
