Frequently Asked Questions - Maternity Leave
FMLA provides job protection for up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave, while paid family leave programs (available in some states) provide partial income replacement during leave. You may be eligible for both simultaneously.
Start planning around 20-24 weeks of pregnancy. This gives you time to understand your benefits, notify your employer, arrange work coverage, and complete any necessary paperwork before your leave begins.
Yes, you can often combine FMLA, short-term disability, accrued paid time off, and state family leave programs. However, they may run concurrently rather than consecutively, so total time off may not equal the sum of all programs.
If you need to extend your leave due to complications or other circumstances, contact HR immediately. You may be eligible for additional FMLA time, extended disability benefits, or unpaid personal leave depending on your situation.
Partners may be eligible for FMLA leave and some state paid family leave programs. The birth mother's partner typically gets bonding leave rather than medical leave. Check your state's specific policies and your employer's parental leave benefits.
