| | OHRM - Leave - Unpaid Leave under Family and Medical Leave Act |
 | | Sick leave for care of a family member who does not meet the definition of "spouse, son, daughter or parent," may only be substituted for unpaid leave under FMLA in the amounts and conditions that it is available to care for a family member or for bereavement normally (i.e., 104 hours for a full-time employee). |
 | | Sick leave for care of a spouse, son, daughter or parent may be substituted for unpaid leave under the FMLA in the amounts and conditions that it is available to care for a family member with a serious health condition (i.e., for a full time employee, 480 hours). |
 | | Leave accrual reductions will continue while an employee is on LWOP under the FMLA when the employee amasses enough hours of absence in a nonpay status during a leave year to equal the number of base-pay hours in one pay period (e.g., 80 hours). |
