Are there certification requirements for taking military caregiver leave?
Yes. When leave is taken to care for a covered servicemember with a serious injury or illness, the State of Delaware as your employer has a right and does require an employee to obtain a certification completed by an authorized health care provider of the covered servicemember. The form for employees’ use in obtaining certification that meets military caregiver leave certification requirements is found on the Human Resource Management webpage at http://www.delawarepersonnel.com/labor/documents/Caregiver_Leave.doc.
