Section 419: Employee Benefits and Leaves

A leave of absence for up to twelve (12) weeks shall be granted for childbirth purposes in accordance with the Family and Medical Leave Act benefit as provided in Policy 419.12s. During the time which an employee is certified as disabled by her physician, the employee may charge the leave time to her accrued sick leave, or she may apply for short-term disability benefits for any period of the leave certified by a physician as qualifying the employee for short-term disability benefits. The balance of any childbirth leave not covered by sick leave or disability benefits may be charged to an employee's accrued vacation time and/or personal leave, or shall be granted without pay as requested by the employee.

The amount of any paid leave available under Policy 419.12s may be reduced by the amount of paid leave taken under this policy.
