FAQ

Records pertaining to FMLA leave Intermittent leave can be tracked by recording the employee's work schedule and subtracting from it the number of hours they took for FMLA leave. If the employee was scheduled to work 7 hours and only worked 3 hours, then 4 hours of FMLA leave can be counted.

The employer looks back 12 months (from July 31st back to the previous August 1st) to see if any FMLA leave had been used.

For example, an employer considers Thanksgiving a holiday and is closed on that day, and none of its employees work. One of its employees is taking 12 weeks of unpaid FMLA leave the last 12 weeks of the calendar year. The employer would count Thanksgiving Day as FMLA leave for that employee.

The Family Medical Leave Act (also known as FMLA) is a federal law passed in 1993 which provides limited protections for employees that need time off work for medical leave for themselves or a family member. It allows employees to take up to 12 weeks of time off work without risk of termination. FMLA leave is unpaid.

Employees can take up to 12 weeks of FMLA leave in a 12 month period. However, employers can define if that time is in a calendar year, a rolling 12 months backward from current days.

Any fixed 12-month period (such as a fiscal year or the period starting on an employee's anniversary date). The 12-month period measured forward from the date an employee's FMLA leave begins. A rolling 12-month period measured backward from the date an employee uses any FMLA leave.

The leave offered by the FMLA (or, for that matter, California's Fair Employment and Housing Act) does not have to be taken all at once. Intermittent FMLA is when an employee uses their 12 weeks of unpaid leave off and on. This is in contrast to continuous family medical leave or working a reduced work schedule.

Under the ''rolling'' 12-month period, each time an employee takes FMLA leave, the remaining leave entitlement would be the balance of the 12 weeks which has not been used during the immediately preceding 12 months.

Under the rolling method, known also in HR circles as the look-back method, the employer looks back over the last 12 months, adds up all the FMLA time the employee has used during the previous 12 months and subtracts that total from the employee's 12-week leave allotment.
