Leave Request and FMLA
Employee Leave Requests
Employees may need to take leave from their jobs to care for themselves or family members during an illness or the birth/adoption of a child. Employees are encouraged to read their Negotiated Agreement to learn more about the types of leave available.
In order to provide timely response and support to employees requesting leave, the Benefits Office asks the employee to complete a Leave Request Form and give it to their Supervisor at least 30 days prior to the start of their leave when the request is not due to an emergency or unforeseen circumstances. Supervisors will then forward the signed Leave Request form to the Benefits Office to begin the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) process. Since employee needs and situations may vary, employees are encouraged to contact the Benefits Office directly with their questions about leave requests and Family Medical Leave (FMLA).
After the leave request form is received by the Benefits Office, Family Medical Leave (FMLA) paperwork will be emailed to the employee's CCPS email address via Administrator eFMLA. This is a secure website and the links are safe to open.
