FMLA Entitlement

Jocelyn · May 2001

Is each FMLA qualifying event for one individual eligible for 12 weeks, or do all FMLA qualifying events on one idividual equal a single 12 week entitlement?

System · May 2001

Each eligible employee is entitled to a total of 12 weeks of annual leave, regardless of the reason (or reasons) for the leave (or leaves).

Remember that your policy should specify whether that leave is counted on a calendar year or within a rolling twelve month basis. This can make a difference as to whether the accumulated leave amounts to more than the legally mandated limit. Good luck.
