[quote=Anonymous]Can someone at a federal agency share how they have been able to take parental leave under the new policies? My husband and I are at different agencies and both policies are unclear, but it's too early for us to give notice and start engaging with HR. It seems like, as a birth parent, I can take 6 weeks ST disability, an additional (max) of 8 weeks sick leave, an additional 12 weeks of "paid parental leave," and then have access to 12 weeks of (unpaid) FMLA. But it is unclear whether I can use sick leave for the 12 weeks of FMLA, or whether it must be unpaid, or whether I can use annual leave, etc. And it seems like this works out to 38 weeks/ 9.5 months total, although again it's unclear whether I can use sick/annual leave for the unpaid FMLA time. Any experiences with navigating this would be very much appreciated. Thank you![/quote]
