[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just did this - it’s 12 weeks of paid parental leave (FEPLA), but you activate FMLA to take the FEPLA. Our agency allows other leave types to be taken before or after, though sick leave must be taken before FEPLA (after FEPLA, can be taken but must be for legit normal reason you’d take sick leave).[/quote] This. FMLA is not a “type” of leave per se. FMLA is a law that just means you can’t be fired/they have to hold your job for you, for 12 weeks. Depending on where you work (federal agency or otherwise), it may be paid or unpaid, using your own accumulated leave or whatever paid parental leave is given to you at your organization. Also depending on where you work, whatever leave you are taking may be required to run concurrently with FMLA. It’s a really common misconception that FMLA is a type of leave. [/quote] They have to hold a similar job but not the same job. Pay must be the same. [/quote]
