(Covered by federal law-FMLA, not NJ state law-FLA)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The 12 month period is calculated on a rolling basis measured backward from the date an employee uses any leave under this policy.\u00a0 Each time an employee takes leave, the College will compute the amount of leave taken and subtract it from the 12 weeks of available leave and the balance remaining is the amount the employee is entitled to take at that time.<\/p>\n<h4>Minimum Eligibility Requirements<\/h4>\n<p>An employee is eligible under federal law (FMLA) if the employee has been employed for at least 12 months or 52 weeks by 69色情视频, and has worked at least 1,250 hours during the 12-month period prior to the time leave would begin under this policy.\u00a0 The provisions of NJ state law (FLA) require employment for 12 months with at least 1000 + base hours during the preceding 12 months. Hours are calculated based upon actual hours that the employee worked including overtime.<\/p>\n<p>69色情视频 will use its records of hours worked for all hourly employees.\u00a0 In the case of exempt employees, the College will assume that any employee employed full-time for seven and one-half month&#8217;s meets the 1,250 hours requirement.\u00a0 Exempt employees who have 12 months&#8217; prior service but less than seven and one-half months&#8217; full-time continuous service at the time leave is requested should include documentation of hours worked with their request.<\/p>\n<h4>State Law<\/h4>\n<p>There may be circumstances where your leave may fall under the jurisdiction of NJ state leave law (FLA) rather than the federal law (FMLA).\u00a0 69色情视频 will comply with both laws.\u00a0 Leave under state law will run concurrently with federal law (FMLA).<\/p>\n<h4>Spousal Exception<\/h4>\n<p>Federal law provides that if a husband and wife both work for 69色情视频, and are eligible for leave, they are only entitled to a combined 12 work weeks of leave taken for birth, adoption, foster care and to care for a covered family member with a serious health condition.\u00a0 NJ state law requires an employer to grant a family leave to more than one employee from the same family at the same time provided the employees are eligible for leave.<\/p>\n<h4>Key Employee Exception<\/h4>\n<p>Federal law (FMLA) provides that if an employee has gross income that is within the top 10% of 69色情视频&#8217;s employees during the calendar year in which the leave is taken, 69色情视频 reserves the right not to restore the employee to his or her prior position if the College will suffer substantial and grievous harm because of the restoration.\u00a0 At the time that leave is granted under this policy, 69色情视频 will inform the employee that the employee is within the top 10% and also explain the possible consequence that restoration may be denied.<\/p>\n<p>If 69色情视频 determines during the employee&#8217;s leave that the employee is not to be restored to employment, the employee will be notified immediately and given the opportunity to return from leave and be restored to his or her position.\u00a0 If the employee does not return from leave, the employee can petition for reinstatement at the end of the leave period and will be notified, by certified mail, whether the employee will not be restored because doing so would cause 69色情视频 substantial and grievous harm.<\/p>\n<p>NJ state law (FLA) allows an employer to deny leave to an employee whose base salary ranks within the highest paid 5% of his her salary or is one of the 7 highest paid, if the employer can demonstrate that the granting of leave will cause a substantial and grievous economic injury.<\/p>\n<h4>Leave for Pregnancy\/Birth of Newborn<\/h4>\n<p>Pregnancy qualifies as a serious health condition under federal law (FMLA).\u00a0 Up to 12 weeks of family leave will be granted for pregnancy under federal law (FMLA) based on medical certification.\u00a0 When the period of medical disability has ended, the provisions of NJ state law (FLA) will apply and up to 12 weeks leave may be granted for care of the newborn.\u00a0 If the leave is for birth, adoption, or foster care placement, federal law (FMLA) provides that the leave must be completed within 12 months of the date of birth or placement.\u00a0 NJ state law (FLA) provides that the leave must commence within 12 months of birth or placement<\/p>\n<p>In the event that an employee wishes to remain out for childcare purposes beyond the covered FMLA and FLA period, it must be requested in writing and it will be handled as a personal leave of absence and subject to provisions of the bargaining unit contract, Administrative Code or Board Policy. (Please refer to your bargaining unit contract for specifics regarding the request process).\u00a0<strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h4>Intermittent\/Reduced Leave<\/h4>\n<p>Both federal (FMLA) and NJ state law (FLA) permit intermittent leave when medically necessary.\u00a0 An employee taking leave for personal illness or to care for a sick family member need not take such leave continuously and may take it on an intermittent basis, or by reducing the employee&#8217;s scheduled work hours, if the employee provides certification from the healthcare provider caring for the employee and\/or family member that leave must be taken in that manner.\u00a0 If leave is not taken continuously, it will be deducted from the employee&#8217;s entitlement to leave, i.e. 12 weeks during a 12-month or 24-month period, in increments of hours or days. Federal law (FMLA) allows for the employee to be transferred temporarily to a job that better accommodates the leave with equal pay and benefits.\u00a0 NJ state law (FLA) provides that reduced leave may not be taken for more than 24 consecutive weeks and an employee may take only one reduced leave per 24-month period.\u00a0 Intermittent leave must be in intervals of at least one week and must be completed in a 12-month period.<\/p>\n<p>Employees requesting intermittent or reduced \u2013schedule leave must make a reasonable effort to avoid disruption to College operations.<\/p>\n<p>Intermittent leave is not required to be granted for birth or adoption under federal law (FMLA) or NJ state law (FLA).<\/p>\n<h4>Military Caregiver Leave<\/h4>\n<p>Eligible employees who are family members of covered service members (spouse, son, daughter, parent or next of kin) will be able to take up to 26 workweeks of leave in a single 12 month period to care for a covered service member in the Regular Armed Forces, National Guard or Reserves with a serious illness or injury incurred in the line of duty on active duty.<\/p>\n<h4>Qualifying Exigency Leave<\/h4>\n<p>This provision expands the normal 12 workweeks of FMLA job protected leave available to eligible employees with a\u00a0 covered military member; spouse, son, daughter or parent, \u00a0serving in the National Guard or Reserves to use for any qualifying exigency arising out of the fact that a covered military member is on active duty or called to active duty status is support of a contingency operation.\u00a0 Qualifying Exigency Leave allows eligible employees to use FMLA leave for the following reasons: short notice deployment, military events and related activities, childcare and school activities, financial and legal arrangements, counseling, rest and recuperation, post deployment activities and additional activities as agreed to by the College and employee.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0There is a limit of up to seven calendar days for the qualifying exigency of Short Notice Deployment Activities.\u00a0 There is a limit of up to 5 work days for each instance of qualifying exigency of Rest and Recuperation.\u00a0\u00a0 Qualifying exigency leave may be taken continuously, intermittently or on a reduced schedule.\u00a0 Exigency Leave does not apply to covered military members in the regular Armed Forces.<\/p>\n<h4>Procedure for Requesting Leave<\/h4>\n<p>All requests for family or medical leave should be made to the Benefits Office in the People Operations and Employee Resources Department.\u00a0 A &#8220;Request for A Leave of Absence&#8221; form must be completed by the employee, signed by the supervisor and returned to the Benefits Office 30 days prior to the commencement of leave, except under emergent circumstances.\u00a0 The employee must advise the College as soon as practicable when dates of leave change or become known.\u00a0<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4>Notice Requirements<\/h4>\n<p>Federal law (FMLA) provides that if the need for family or medical leave is foreseeable, an employee must provide not less than 30 days notice before the date the leave is to begin or such notice as is practicable. The College may require explanation of why 30 days advance notice was not practicable.<strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>NJ state law (FLA) requires the employee to provide reasonable advance notice\u201330 days for birth\/adoption, except where emergent circumstances require less notice or 15 days notice for serious health condition, except where emergent circumstances require less notice.\u00a0 Leave will be denied unless there is a reasonable excuse for the delay.\u00a0 If leave is denied for lack of notice, the employee may designate leave to start 30 days after notice is given.<\/p>\n<p>Failure to report to work when family and medical leave has been denied will be treated as an unexcused absence and subject to disciplinary action.<\/p>\n<p>If the need for family or medical leave is not foreseeable, notice must be given by the employee as soon as possible and practicable.\u00a0 Employees are expected to promptly notify their supervisor and the Benefits Office of the People Operations and Employee Resources Department as soon as they learn of the need for leave.\u00a0 Except in the case of extreme medical emergencies, employees are expected to call to advise their supervisor as soon as they know of the need for and expected duration of leave.\u00a0 In emergencies, the employee or a family member should contact 69色情视频 at (201) 684-7502 and give the same information.\u00a0 Requests for leave should then be submitted in writing as soon as practicable. (Absent good cause or medical emergencies, written requests for leave should be submitted within three business days after oral request is made).<\/p>\n<h4>College Responsibility<\/h4>\n<p>After receiving a request for FMLA or FLA leave, 69色情视频 will respond in writing, notify the employee whether the leave will be counted as FMLA\/FLA leave, and provide information regarding benefit continuation while on leave.\u00a0 If the leave will not be designated as FMLA\/FLA-qualifying, the College shall notify the employee of that determination.\u00a0 In a notice of FMLA designation, 69色情视频 will notify those employees granted FMLA leave for the employee&#8217;s own serious health condition, that a fitness-for duty certification from their healthcare provider must be submitted to the Benefits Office prior to restoration to their position.\u00a0 The College may request that the fitness-for-duty certification address the employee&#8217;s ability to perform the essential functions of the employee&#8217;s position as listed in the Notice of FMLA designation.<\/p>\n<h4>Medical Certification<\/h4>\n<p>69色情视频 requires proof of necessity for family or medical leave by a healthcare provider.\u00a0 The information required shall include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The date on which the serious health condition commenced;<\/li>\n<li>The probable duration of the condition;<\/li>\n<li>Appropriate sufficient medical facts within the knowledge of the health care provider that would entitle the employee to take family or medical leave;<\/li>\n<li>An estimate of the amount of time that the employee is needed to care for a family member or a statement that the employee is unable to perform the functions of the position of the employee; and<\/li>\n<li>In cases of medical leave, an explanation of the extent to which the employee is unable to perform the function of the employee&#8217;s position.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Upon request of leave the College will provide the employee with a Certification of Healthcare Provider form for the employee or covered family member. Certifications must be submitted within 15 days of the date requested by the College.\u00a0 Recertification may be requested every 30 days unless the medical certification indicates the minimum duration is more than 30 days.
