Supplemental Addition to FMLA Poster |
Download and Post Mandatory FMLA Revised Info
The recently expanded Family and Medical Leave Act provides two new types of military FMLA leave:
- Qualifying exigency leave
- Service member family leave
Businesses covered by the FMLA with 50 or more employees must now offer up to 26 weeks of unpaid leave to employees who provide care to wounded U.S. military personnel. Employers must also provide up to 12 weeks of leave to immediate family members of military personnel who have a qualified exigency.
Employers need to order a new poster or display the updated information.
The U.S. Department of Labor updated the FMLA poster that highlights the new provisions. You may order a new poster or display the additional requirements (35 KB, PDF) in a conspicuous place with your original FMLA poster. You must display the information even if you have no eligible employees.
