The COVID-19 pandemic has brought the world to a halt and has left no individual or family untouched. To meet the need, the government has updated the qualifications for the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the Family First Coronavirus Relief Act (FFCRA).

The following regulations are valid until December 31, 2020.

Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)

The FMLA entitles eligible employees to take unpaid, job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons with continuation of group health insurance coverage under the same terms and conditions as if the employee had not taken leave. To qualify, you must:

  • Be out of work as a result of COVID-19 (includes childcare providers and caregivers)
  • Be employed by a business with a minimum of 50 employees
  • Have worked at this business for at least 12 months with over 1,250 hours of service

For information on what eligible individuals receive, click here.

Family First Coronavirus Relief Act (FFCRA)

The FFCRA requires certain employers to provide employees with paid sick leave or expanded family and medical leave for specified reasons related to COVID-19. To qualify, you must:

  • Be out of work as a result of COVID-19
  • Be employed by a business with 500 employees or less

For more information on what eligible individuals receive, click here.
