           Mersen Service Award Program
           The Service Award Program recognizes employees for their dedication and service to Mersen. You are eligible for a service award

           Family Medical Leave
           Mersen provides Family and Medical Leave to its eligible employees (after one year or 1250 hours of employment). The company
           posts the mandatory FMLA Notice and upon hire provides all new employees with notices required by the U.S. Department of
           Labor (DOL) on Employee Rights and Responsibilities under the Family and Medical Leave Act. This act was created and designed
           for employees to balance their work and family life by taking unpaid, job-protected leave for specific family and medical reasons,
           which allows your benefits to stay in place, and guarantees reinstatement to the same or equivalent position.

           Under this policy, Mersen may grant up to 12 weeks to attend to the serious health condition of the employee, parent, spouse
           or child, or for the pregnancy or care of a newborn child, or for the adoption or foster care of a child (or up to 26 weeks of military
           caregiver leave to care for a covered service member with a serious injury or illness) or illness if the eligible employee is the
           service member’s spouse, son, daughter, parent or next of kin (military caregiver leave) during a 12-month period to eligible
           employees. The leave may be paid, unpaid or a combination of paid and unpaid leave, depending on the circumstances of the
           leave and as specified in this policy and State benefits. FMLA runs concurrent to any approved employee short term or long-term
           disability leave. For non-illness related employee health leave requests, employees must see their local HR manager.

           Employees are required to use any vacation or sick time prior to going unpaid for the benefits and should speak with their HR
           Manager regarding their leave and any specific State leave regulations.

           Check with your local HR to see if you are eligible for any State Paid FMLA.
