Highlights
Serious Medical Condition
Employees may be entitled to leave for their own or a family member’s COVID-19 illness if it constitutes a “serious medical condition” under the FMLA.
FFCRA Leave Enforcement
The DOL will enforce the FFCRA for leave taken or requested between April 1, 2020 and Dec. 31, 2020.
Extension of FFCRA Tax Credits
The American Rescue Plan Act extended tax credits for employers who voluntarily provide FFCRA leave through Sept. 30, 2021.
Child Care Leave
Federal law does not mandate leave to care for a healthy child. The FFCRA required leave for certain COVID-19-related child care through Dec. 30, 2021.
Testing Before Returning to Work Employers may require a COVID-19 test before employees return to work from FMLA leave if it is nondiscriminatory.
