Special Rules Applicable to Employees of Schools

29 CFR 825.603 - Special rules for school employees, duration of FMLA leave.

  • Section Number: 825.603
  • Section Name: Special rules for school employees, duration of FMLA leave. 
    (a) If an employee chooses to take leave for "periods of a 
particular duration" in the case of intermittent or reduced schedule 
leave, the entire period of leave taken will count as FMLA leave.
    (b) In the case of an employee who is required to take leave until 
the end of an academic term, only the period of leave until the 
employee is ready and able to return to work shall be charged against 
the employee's FMLA leave entitlement. The employer has the option not 
to require the employee to stay on leave until the end of the school 
term. Therefore, any additional leave required by the employer to the 
end of the school term is not counted as FMLA leave; however, the 
employer shall be required to maintain the employee's group health 
insurance and restore the employee to the same or equivalent job 
including other benefits at the conclusion of the leave.
