Family and Medical Leave Act Notice. Eligible employees are entitled to take unpaid, job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), 29 U.S.C. § 2601 et seq. To be eligible, an employee must have worked for the Company for at least twelve (12) months, have worked at least 1,250 hours during the twelve-month period preceding the start of leave, and work at a location where the Company employs at least fifty (50) employees within seventy-five (75) miles. Eligible employees may take up to twelve (12) workweeks of unpaid leave in a twelve-month period for: (a) the birth of a child and to care for the newborn within one year of birth; (b) the placement of a child with the employee for adoption or foster care within one year of placement; (c) to care for the employee's spouse, child, or parent who has a serious health condition; or (d) a serious health condition that makes the employee unable to perform the essential functions of his or her job. Additionally, eligible employees may take up to twenty-six (26) workweeks of leave during a single twelve-month period to care for a covered servicemember with a serious injury or illness. Upon return from FMLA leave, the employee shall be restored to the same position or an equivalent position with equivalent benefits, pay, and other terms and conditions of employment.
