Benefits Handbook Links - Updated February 2023

Disability leave for the birth of the child and for your own serious health condition, including workers' compensation leave (to the extent that it qualifies), will be designated as FMLA leave and will run concurrently with FMLA. For example, the Firm provides the following paid parental benefits for non-legal staff members. (Attorneys should refer to the Operations Manual for details on this policy): o Paid Maternity Leave: Four weeks of leave paid. (Issued at the conclusion of any short-term disability benefits paid.)

o Paid Paternity Leave: Four weeks of leave paid o Paid Adoption Leave: Four weeks of leave paid .

The paid leave is compensated at the following levels: o Staff members with less than five years of service are eligible to receive an employee benefit of 70% of your weekly earnings. o Staff members with five years or more of service are eligible to receive an employee benefit of 90% of your weekly earnings. The above paid leave weeks will be designated as FMLA leave and counted toward your 12-week entitlement. You may then be required to substitute accrued but unused paid leave as appropriate before being eligible for unpaid leave for what remains of the 12-week entitlement.
