    They cover different reasons related to COVID-19:

    • Families First Paid Sick Leave- FAMILY– If you must care for a family member who is dealing with any COVID-19 related issues (including assistance to receive their vaccination).
      NOTE– this leave only pays at 2/3 wages, so you must report to Hollie DeWalt, in HR, how you would like to cover the other 1/3 of your time (sick, vacation or unpaid).
    • Families First- FMLA– If you must care for your child because their school is closed due to COVID-19.
      NOTE– this leave only pays at 2/3 wages, so you must report to Hollie DeWalt, in HR, how you would like to cover the other 1/3 of your time (sick, vacation or unpaid).
