General Provisions <br />It is the policy of Cass County to grant up to 12 weeks (or 26 weeks, if leave is taken to provide care for qualifying family member injured during active military service) of family <br />and medical leave during any 12-month period to eligible employees, in accordance with the <br />Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). <br />B. Eligibility <br />In order to qualify to take family and medical leave under this policy, the employee must meet all of the following conditions: <br />1. The employee must have worked for Cass County at least 12 months (these 12 months <br />need not have been consecutive); 2. The employee must have worked at least 1,250 hours during the 12-month period immediately before the date when the leave would begin; and <br />− This calculation includes only actual hours worked, and will not include any <br />holiday, annual leave, or other forms of paid leave that may occur during the relevant 12-month review period, regardless of whether such time is counted as hours worked for overtime purposes <br />− This calculation includes all periods of absence from work due to or <br />necessitated by military service (active duty and reserve) under Cass County’s Military Leave policy. <br />3. The employee must work in an office or worksite where 50 or more employees are employed and work at a location where the County employs 50 or more employees within 75 miles.

The adoption of a child, or the placement of a child with the employee for foster care; <br />3. The employee’s own serious health condition (a “serious health condition” is a condition that requires inpatient care at a hospital, hospice, or residential medical care facility, or a condition that requires continuing care by a licensed health care provider as defined in applicable Department of Labor regulations, and in the case of an <br />employee, makes the employee unable to perform the functions of the employee’s position.); <br /> Cass County 40
