| SUBJECT: |
CIVIL SERVICE REGULATION 2.03, LEAVES OF ABSENCE
|
Regulation 2.03, Leaves of Absence, was circulated for review and comment under SPDOC 09-01, dated January 2, 2009.
|
The proposed changes were made to reflect amendments to the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the Department of Labor's FMLA regulations since the last revision of this regulation in 2008. The principal change is adding new provisions clarifying the availability of FMLA military caregiver leave and qualifying exigency leave. The regulation has also been amended to clarify that any time during which an employee uses any paid leave during an FMLA leave counts toward the employee's FMLA entitlement. Based upon comments received, minor revisions have also been incorporated into this regulation.
This regulation is now being issued with an effective date of January 16, 2009.
Questions regarding this regulation should be directed to Janet McClelland, Chief Deputy Director, Civil Service Commission, P.O. Box 30002, Lansing, Michigan, 48909.
