What happens if an employee’s FMLA leave of absence exceeds 90 days and he/she is not ready to return to work?
A family leave of absence can be requested for a maximum of 90 calendar days in a rolling calendar year. Extensions are not permitted. However, an employee may request a personal leave of absence. Personal leaves of absence must be approved by the employee’s department head and cannot exceed 90 calendar days. All personal leaves are unpaid and the position can be guaranteed for 30 calendar days only. Please refer to the appropriate Leave of Absence Policy for more information.
