The leave will be unpaid, except that employees must use any
available paid sick leave concurrently and may choose to use
other accrued paid time off concurrently once their sick leave has
been exhausted.
PREGNANCY LEAVE
The Pregnancy Disability Leave (PDL) Act allows an employee who
is disabled due to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical
conditions to take a pregnancy‐related disability leave for the
period of actual disability, up to a maximum of four months. The
duration of the leave is determined by the employee’s physician.
Part‐time employees are entitled to leave on a prorated basis.
Employees will be required to provide medical certification
supporting the need to time away under pregnancy disability
leave.
Employees who take leave for pregnancy, childbirth, or a related
medical condition will be treated like an employee with any other
disability and will be eligible for temporary disability benefits in
the same amount as any other employee on leave.
Regular and temporary full‐ and part‐time employees of the
Company are eligible for pregnancy leave without regard to
length of employment. Any accrued but unused sick leave will be
substituted for unpaid pregnancy disability leave. Employees may
elect to substitute any other accrued but unused paid time off for
unpaid pregnancy disability leave.
