 Have worked for at least 1,250 hours during the 12 month period before the leave is to begin.
 Work at a location where at least 50 employees are employed by E3 within 75 miles.

In determining FMLA eligibility, if you are re-employed following military service, you will be given credit for (i) the
period of uniformed service towards the months-of-employment eligibility requirement, and (ii) the hours of service
that would have been performed but for the period of uniformed service.

E3 will offer up to twelve (12) weeks of leave within a twelve (12) month period calculated by looking backward at
the amount of leave taken within the 12-month period immediately preceding the first date of leave. Except for
qualifying leave to care for a covered service member, which is up to 26 weeks in a single 12 month period calculated
from the first day of leave.

Eligible employees are entitled to take 12 weeks of FMLA leave in a single 12 month period for the following FMLA
qualifying events: to care for the birth of a child or the placement of a child for adoption or foster care; to care for
a family member with a serious health condition; for the employee’s own serious health condition; and for any
qualifying exigency. Eligible employees are entitled to take 26 weeks of FMLA leave in a single 12 month period to
care for a covered service member with a serious illness or injury. Employees who are eligible and need to take
leave to care for a covered service member and also need to take leave for any other FMLA qualifying reason are
only entitled to a combined total of 26 weeks of leave in the single 12-month period.

Definitions
A “child,” “son,” or “daughter,” is defined as a biological, adopted, or foster child, a stepchild, a legal ward, or a child
of a person standing in loco parentis, who is either under age 18, or age 18 or older and incapable of self-care because
of a mental or physical disability at the time that FMLA leave is to commence. For purposes of care of a covered
service member or leave due to a qualifying exigency, the definition of child is the same as above except the child
may be of any age.

A “parent” is the biological, adoptive, step, or foster parent of an employee or an individual who stood in loco
parentis to an employee when the employee was a son or daughter. This includes an individual who assumed “day-
to-day” responsibility for a child. Parent does not include in-laws.

A “spouse” is a husband or wife of a couple, or in the case of an individual in a same sex or common law marriage,
who: 1) was married in a state that recognizes their marriage or such marriages; or 2) was married in a place where
the marriage is valid, and such a marriage could have been entered into in at least one state.

A “next of kin” of a covered service member means the nearest blood relative other than the covered service
member’s spouse, parent, son, or daughter.

Medical Leave
Eligible employees may take FMLA leave to care for your spouse (husband or wife, regardless of sex), son, daughter
or parent who has a serious health condition and when you are unable to work because of your own serious health
condition.

The most common serious health conditions that qualify for FMLA leave are:

 conditions requiring an overnight stay in a hospital or other medical care facility;
 conditions that incapacitate you or your family member (ex: unable to work or attend school or perform
other regular daily activities due to the serious health condition, or the treatment of, or recovery from the
serious health condition) for more than 3 consecutive days and that involves continuing treatment (either
multiple appointments with a health care provider, or a single appointment and follow-up regimen of
treatment);
 chronic conditions that cause occasional periods when you or your family member is incapacitated and
requires treatment by a health care provider at least twice a year;
