SECTION III – NOTICE OF RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Part A: FMLA Leave Entitlement
You have a right under the FMLA to take unpaid, job-protected FMLA leave in a 12-month period for certain family and
medical reasons, including up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave in a 12-month period for the birth of a child or placement of a
child for adoption or foster care, for leave related to your own or a family member’s serious health condition, or for certain
qualifying exigencies related to the deployment of a military member to covered active duty. You also have a right
Page 2 of 4 Form WH-381, Revised June 2020
Employee Name: ____________________________________________________________________________________________
under the FMLA to take up to 26 weeks of unpaid, job-protected FMLA leave in a single 12-month period to care for a
covered servicemember with a serious injury or illness (Military Caregiver Leave).
The 12-month period for FMLA leave is calculated as:
(Select as appropriate)
The calendar year (January 1
st
- December 31
st
)
A fixed leave year based on _____________________________________________________________
(e.g., a fiscal year beginning on July 1 and ending on June 30)
The 12-month period measured forward from the date of your first FMLA leave usage.
A “rolling” 12-month period measured backward from the date of any FMLA leave usage.
(Each time an employee
takes FMLA leave, the remaining leave is the balance of the 12 weeks not used during the 12 months immediately before
the FMLA leave is to start.)
If applicable, the single 12-month period for Military Caregiver Leave started on ______________________ (mm/dd/yyyy).
You (
are / are not) considered a key employee as defined under the FMLA. Your FMLA leave cannot be denied for
this reason; however, we may not restore you to employment following FMLA leave if such restoration will cause
substantial and grievous economic injury to us.
We ( have / have not) determined that restoring you to employment at the conclusion of FMLA leave will cause
substantial and grievous economic harm to us. Additional information will be provided separately concerning your status
as key employee and restoration.
Part B: Substitution of Paid Leave – When Paid Leave is Used at the Same Time as FMLA Leave
You have a right under the FMLA to request that your accrued paid leave be substituted for your FMLA leave. This means
that you can request that your accrued paid leave run concurrently with some or all of your unpaid FMLA leave, provided
you meet any applicable requirements of our leave policy. Concurrent leave use means the absence will count against both
the designated paid leave and unpaid FMLA leave at the same time. If you do not meet the requirements for taking paid
leave, you remain entitled to take available unpaid FMLA leave in the applicable 12-month period. Even if you do not
request it, the FMLA allows us to require you to use your available sick, vacation, or other paid leave during your FMLA
absence.
(Check all that apply)
Some or all of your FMLA leave will not be paid. Any unpaid FMLA leave taken will be designated as FMLA
leave and counted against the amount of FMLA leave you have available to use in the applicable 12-month period.
You have requested to use some or all of your available paid leave
(e.g., sick, vacation, PTO) during your FMLA
leave. Any paid leave taken for this reason will also be designated as FMLA leave and counted against the amount of
FMLA leave you have available to use in the applicable 12-month period.
We are requiring you to use some or all of your available paid leave
(e.g., sick, vacation, PTO) during your FMLA
leave. Any paid leave taken for this reason will also be designated as FMLA leave and counted against the amount of
FMLA leave you have available to use in the applicable 12-month period.
Other: (e.g., short- or long-term disability, workers’ compensation, state medical leave law, etc.)_________________________
Any time taken for this reason will also be designated as FMLA leave and counted against the amount of
FMLA leave you have available to use in the applicable 12-month period.
The applicable conditions for use of paid leave include: ____________________________________________________.
For more information about conditions applicable to sick/vacation/other paid leave usage please refer to _____________
__________________________________________ available at: ____________________________________________.

Part C: Maintain Health Benefits
Your health benefits must be maintained during any period of FMLA leave under the same conditions as if you continued
to work. During any paid portion of FMLA leave, your share of any premiums will be paid by the method normally used
during any paid leave. During any unpaid portion of FMLA leave, you must continue to make any normal contributions to
the cost of the health insurance premiums. To make arrangements to continue to make your share of the premium payments
on your health insurance while you are on any unpaid FMLA leave, contact ____________________________ at
_____________________________________.
You have a minimum grace period of ( 30-days or _____________ indicate longer period, if applicable) in which to
make premium payments. If payment is not made timely, your group health insurance may be cancelled, provided we notify
you in writing at least 15 days before the date that your health coverage will lapse, or, at our option, we may pay your share
of the premiums during FMLA leave, and recover these payments from you upon your return to work.
You may be required to reimburse us for our share of health insurance premiums paid on your behalf during your FMLA
leave if you do not return to work following unpaid FMLA leave for a reason other than: the continuation, recurrence, or
onset of your or your family member’s serious health condition which would entitle you to FMLA leave; or the continuation,
recurrence, or onset of a covered servicemember’ s serious injury or illness which would entitle you to FMLA leave; or
other circumstances beyond your control.
Part D: Other Employee Benefits
Upon your return from FMLA leave, your other employee benefits, such as pensions or life insurance, must be resumed in
the same manner and at the same levels as provided when your FMLA leave began. To make arrangements to continue
your employee benefits while you are on FMLA leave, contact _______________________________________________
at _________________________________________________.
Part E: Return-to-Work Requirements
You must be reinstated to the same or an equivalent job with the same pay, benefits, and terms and conditions of employment
on your return from FMLA-protected leave. An equivalent position is one that is virtually identical to your former position
in terms of pay, benefits, and working conditions. At the end of your FMLA leave, all benefits must also be resumed in the
same manner and at the same level provided when the leave began. You do not have return-to-work rights under the FMLA
if you need leave beyond the amount of FMLA leave you have available to use.
Part F: Other Requirements While on FMLA Leave
While on leave you ( will be / will not be) required to furnish us with periodic reports of your status and intent to
return to work every ________________________________________________________________________________.
(Indicate interval of periodic reports, as appropriate for the FMLA leave situation).
If the circumstances of your leave change and you are able to return to work earlier than expected,
you will be required to notify us at least two workdays prior to the date you intend to report for work.
