MEDICAL/MATERNITY LEAVE. Under University policy, and as required by federal law, the time during which an employee or faculty member is unable to work because of a medical disability caused or contributed to by pregnancy, miscarriage, termination of pregnancy, childbirth and recovery there from will be covered by the provisions of the University’s sick leave policy or by the provisions of the University’s disability leave program depending on the category and associated leave eligibility of the affected faculty or staff member. Faculty and staff are therefore eligible for paid leave for such absences under the provisions of the applicable leave policy. There shall be no stipulated medical maternity leave requirement either before or after childbirth. Leave requirements will vary depending upon each employee’s individual circumstances; the advice of an attending physician or other licensed health care provider will normally determine the appropriate length of a leave. An eight-week total leave period for pre-partum and post-partum care and recovery, during which time the employee will be excused from all duties, will be considered normal; however, more or less leave time may be taken based upon individual health circumstances. In order to assure continuity of instruction for students, a female faculty member will normally be excused from instructional duties during the semester or other instructional period that the medical maternity leave, or a majority of said leave, occurs.

The provisions of Section 3.4.3.3 of the Bylaws of the Board of Regents permitting an employee’s paid leave to be reduced by the amount required to compensate a substitute shall not be exercised in cases of such paternal leave.
