Subject: United States Department of Labor - FMLA Poster Revision
A revised Family
and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) poster, reflecting the recently
published final rule, is now available for viewing and downloading. Every
employer covered by the FMLA is required to post and keep posted on its
premises, in conspicuous places where employees are employed, a notice
explaining the Act’s provisions.
The Department has
provided optional forms for use by employers and employees during the FMLA
process. The Department has revised its Certification of Health Care
Provider form (WH-380), and divided it into two separate forms for an Employee’s Serious Health
Condition (WH-380E) and a Family Member’s Serious
Health Condition (WH-380F). The Department has also revised its
Notice of Eligibility
and Rights and Responsibilities form (WH-381). In addition, the
Department has added new forms for Designation Notice to
Employee of FMLA Leave (WH-382), Certification of Qualifying
Exigency for Military Family Leave (WH-384), and Certification for Serious
Injury or Illness of Covered Servicemember for Military Family Leave
(WH-385).
The poster and forms
become effective on January 16, 2009. Additional compliance assistance
materials are also available on FMLA Final Rule Web site at www.dol.gov/esa/whd/fmla/finalrule.htm.
