Pregnancy Disability Leaves Sample Clauses
The Pregnancy Disability Leaves clause establishes an employee's right to take leave from work due to pregnancy-related disabilities. It typically outlines the conditions under which leave can be taken, the duration of the leave, and any requirements for medical certification or notice to the employer. For example, an employee may be entitled to a certain number of weeks off if they are unable to work due to pregnancy complications. This clause ensures that employees are protected from job loss or discrimination during pregnancy-related absences, addressing both legal compliance and workplace fairness.
Pregnancy Disability Leaves. The Agency will provide pregnancy disability leave per State law, separate from family and medical leave. Pregnancy leave is defined as the time a female employee is temporarily disabled due to a pregnancy, childbirth or a related medical condition. Female employees should refer to the NCPA Policy and Procedures Manual for further information on Pregnancy Disability Leave. Employees may also use accumulated vacation to supplement pay while on pregnancy leave and may be eligible for an unpaid medical leave that extends the total leave time by 12 weeks in a one-year period under FMLA. See Medical (FMLA) for further information on unpaid family leave (11.2). If there is any conflict between this MOU and any state or federal statute, the statute will prevail.
