Yanfeng Emp Handbook Proof
The Company calculates FMLA on a “rolling backward 12-month basis.” This means that the 12-month period is measured backwards from the date an employee uses any FMLA. Each time an employee takes FMLA, the remaining leave entitlement would be any balance of the annual entitlement that has not been used during the immediately preceding 12 months. However, a rolling forward 12-month basis is used to track the up to 26 weeks of family military leave available to care for an injured service member. Types of FMLA The Company provides up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave to eligible employees for the following reasons: For the birth of the employee’s child, to bond with the employee’s newborn child, or for the placement of a child for adoption or foster care and to bond with that child; To care for the employee’s spouse, child, or parent (but not parent “in-law”), who has a serious health condition; For the employee’s own serious health condition that makes the employee unable to perform their job; or Because of certain military family leave entitlements or to care for a covered service member with a serious injury or illness as described in the section entitled Types of Military Family Leave.
