OFLA: Use of Paid Leave


(1)

Except as provided in this rule or the terms of a collective bargaining agreement, an agreement between the eligible employee and the covered employer, or an employer policy, OFLA leave is not required to be granted with pay.

(2)

An employee eligible to take OFLA leave is entitled to use accrued paid sick leave, personal leave, vacation leave or any other paid leave that is offered in lieu of vacation leave, during the period of OFLA leave. As used in this rule, accrued paid sick leave does not include disability insurance or disability benefits.

(3)

An employer may require an employee to use accrued paid leave during OFLA leave that would otherwise be unpaid, and may determine the order in which paid leave is to be used if to do so is consistent with a collective bargaining agreement or other written agreement between the eligible employee and the covered employer or an employer policy. The employer may exercise these prerogatives only if:

(a)

Prior to the commencement of OFLA leave, the employer provides written notice to the employee that accrued paid leave is to be used during OFLA leave; or

(b)

Within five business days of the employee’s notice of unforeseeable leave, the employer provides written notice to the employee.

(4)

An eligible employee or covered employer may choose to have the employee’s OFLA leave run concurrently with a type of paid or unpaid leave not referenced in these rules, as provided or allowed under an employer policy, except that a covered employer may not reduce the amount of OFLA leave available to an eligible employee by any period the employee is unable to work because of a disabling compensable injury which entitles the employee to compensation from the covered employer. See 659A.162 (Length of leave)(6) and ORS 656.005 (Definitions).
