An employer must provide notice to his/her employees of the right to
request a California Family Rights Act leave and must post the notice in a conspicuous place
or places where employees tend to congregate.
If the employer publishes
a handbook describing other kinds of personal or disability leaves
and makes it available to his/her employees, the employer must include
a description of California Family Rights Act (CFRA) leave in its next
edition.
The
employer may include both pregnancy
disability leave and California Family Rights Act (CFRA) leave requirements in a single notice.
To avoid miscommunication and disputed employee notice rights, give
employees this pamphlet when administering the leave of an employee.
The California Family Rights Act (CFRA) was established to ensure secure leave
rights for the following:
- Birth of a child for purposes of bonding
- Placement of a child in the employee's family for adoption or foster care
- For the serious health condition of the employee's child, parent or spouse
- For the employee's own serious health condition
