The Family Medical Leave Policy, guided by the Family Medical Leave Act, helps employees manage their family and medical leave needs. This policy is essential for fostering a family-friendly workplace, allowing eligible employees to take up to 12 weeks of leave within a rolling 12-month period for various significant life events, such as the birth or adoption of a child, caring for a seriously ill family member, or addressing their own serious health conditions.

The policy emphasizes the importance of proper notification and documentation, requiring employees to submit leave requests through a formal process. Beyond that, it ensures that employees can maintain their health benefits during their leave, reinforcing the company's commitment to employee well-being. Upon return, employees are guaranteed reinstatement to their original or equivalent position, ensuring job security.

Key procedures include:

• Eligibility Requirements: Employees must meet specific criteria to qualify for family medical leave, including length of service and hours worked.
• Leave Notification Process: Employees are required to follow strict guidelines for notifying management about their leave, particularly for foreseeable 
  circumstances.
• Health Benefits Continuation: Employees retain their health benefits during leave, with provisions for payment of premiums.
• Job Security: Employees are guaranteed reinstatement to their original position or an equivalent role upon returning from leave.
