Does Taking FMLA Intermittently Affect Full-Time Status or Health Benefits?

Does Taking FMLA Intermittently Affect Full-Time Status or Health Benefits? 🤔

No. The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is clear on this point. Taking FMLA intermittently does not impact your full-time status or health benefits. Employers must maintain the employee’s coverage under any group health plan under the same conditions as if the employee had been continuously working full-time.

💡 Key Points:

Health Benefits Coverage: Your specific health coverage remains intact during FMLA leave, whether it’s for just you, you and your spouse, or your whole family. This applies to medical, dental, vision, and other benefits.
Full-Time Status: You are still considered a full-time employee and eligible for the same benefits even while on FMLA leave.
Rest assured, intermittent FMLA leave won’t compromise your job or benefits!
