For the birth or placement of a child where both parents are employed at the University, how much FMLA leave are the parents entitled to take?
Each parent is entitled to 12 weeks of FMLA leave for the birth or adoption of a child assuming each otherwise meets FMLA eligibility requirements. When both parents work in the same department/division, the responsible administrator may exercise discretion in approving timing of the leaves to address resources and work coverage of the department/division.
