[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Separate question, do you have to be there for a year to get the benefit? I just got an offer and also trying to conceive, of I give birth 9 months into my job do I still get 12 weeks?[/quote] They haven't written the policy yet, but FMLA only kicks in after a year, so you should assume that the parental leave policy will follow FMLA. Also, your first year in the federal government is probational, which means you could be let go at any point during that year at will. Also, if you take leave without pay during your first year you will be in a significant hole and put some benefits at risk. IOW, while your supervisor can certainly choose to hold your job for you, they have no requirement to. I would put off conception until after the first 1/2 year if you really want to make the move to federal. [/quote]
