This includes birth, stillbirth, caring for a family member with a serious health condition, or the employee's own serious health condition. The bill specifies that eligible employees must provide written notice of the need for leave and must have been employed for at least eleven months and three weeks. It also mandates that leave policies allow employees to begin utilizing FMLA leave if they become eligible while on leave.
