Can I take Paid Parental Leave and then take time off using Family Medical Leave separately?
No, Paid Parental Leave and Family Medical Leave run concurrently. Staff members must submit a Leave of Absence Request for Family Medical Leave as part of the process for requesting Paid Parental Leave. Eligible employees can take up to 12 weeks off through the Family Medical Leave Act. Paid Parental Leave provides three weeks of pay following the first three weeks of leave. Staff members can use vacation, sick time, PTO or time off without pay for the remaining time provided through Family Medical Leave.
