Can my employer require to me to use vacation or sick leave before getting PFL benefits?
Your employer may require you to use up to two weeks of earned but unused vacation leave prior to getting PFL benefits. Vacation leave may include paid time off. One week of vacation leave can be used during your 7-day waiting period. However, your employer can not require you to take sick leave before getting PFL benefits.
