Family and Medical Care Leave Clause Samples

The Family and Medical Care Leave clause establishes an employee's right to take time off from work for specific family or medical reasons, such as the birth or adoption of a child, caring for a seriously ill family member, or addressing the employee's own serious health condition. Typically, this clause outlines the eligibility requirements, the duration of leave permitted, and the process for requesting and documenting such leave. Its core function is to ensure employees can address important family or health needs without risking their employment, thereby promoting workplace fairness and compliance with applicable laws.
Family and Medical Care Leave. Pursuant to State and Federal law, the City will provide family and medical leave for eligible employees. The following provisions set forth unit members' rights and obligations with respect to such leave. Rights and obligations which are not specifically set forth below are set forth in the Department of Labor regulations implementing the Federal Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA) and the regulations of the California Fair Employment and Housing Commission implementing the California Family Rights Act (CFRA). Unless otherwise provided by this section, "leave" under this section shall mean leave pursuant to the FMLA and the CFRA.
Family and Medical Care Leave. 1. A regular full-time employee, with more than one year of continuous service, or who has worked more than 1250 hours during the previous 12 months, may request a Family and Medical Care Leave of absence of up to 12 weeks in any one continuous 12-month period. This leave may be taken for the birth or adoption of a child, to care for a child, spouse or parent who has a serious health condition or for one’s own health condition that makes the employee unable to perform the essential functions of the job. If this leave is granted, upon return, the employee will be reinstated to the same or a comparable position as the position held before the leave unless such a position no longer exists. Available accruals must be used for such leaves. For leaves related to an employee’s own serious health condition, or that of an eligible family member, sick leave will be utilized first, followed by other accrual (holiday, CTO, vacation). If all available accrual is depleted an employee may continue on an unpaid leave until the 12-week maximum leave is taken. If an employee desires to take an FMLA or CFRA leave not associated with the serious health condition of him or herself, or an eligible family member, sick leave hours accrued may not be used. 2. Whenever possible, the employee must provide at least 30 days written notice that they wish to take this leave of absence. When this is not possible the employee must notify the city, in writing, as soon as possible. Failure to comply with these notification rules may result in the denial or deferral of the requested leave until the employee complies with the notice provisions. 3. The City will require the certification from the health care provider who is attending to the serious health care condition of the employee, the employee’s child, spouse or parent before allowing the employee to take a leave to take care of that family member. If there is a question concerning this certification, the City reserves the right to require additional certification(s) (without being given a diagnosis) at City expense. Unless otherwise agreed to by the City, any Family and Medical Care Leave must be taken in segments of one full work day (Shift). 4. If the employee is pregnant, she is entitled to pregnancy disability leave and/or Family and Medical Leave in accordance with California and federal law. 5.
