Family and Medical Leave (FML)

Under federal Family and Medical Leave (FML), the California Family Rights Act (CFRA) and CSU policy, employees with at least 12 months of service are eligible for a leave of up to 12 weeks in a 12-month period for the following reasons:

• To care for a child after birth or placement with the employee for adoption or foster care.
• To care for the employee's spouse, domestic partner, child or parent who has a serious health condition.
• If the employee is unable to perform the essential functions of his or her job due to a serious health condition.

Family medical leave is without pay; however, employees must exhaust their personal holiday and any accumulated vacation or compensatory time off prior to beginning unpaid leave. Sick leave credits may be used if mutually agreed upon by the employee and supervisor. Employees in Unit 4 (APC) must request Family Medical Leave (FML).  All other represented and non-represented eligible employees may be placed on FML by CSUF after 3 days of leave due to illness or date of knowledge that an employee is off work due to illness or upon their request.  To FML, complete the Leave of Absence Request form on the Human Resource Services webpage at http://hr.fullerton.edu/Forms/Directory.aspx
