Families First Coronavirus Response Act Request Form

Important Information Regarding your Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) Request

The Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA or Act) requires certain employers to provide employees with paid sick leave or expanded family and medical leave for specified reasons related to COVID-19. The Department of Labor’s (Department) Wage and Hour Division (WHD) administers and enforces the new law’s paid leave requirements. These provisions will apply from the effective date through December 31, 2020. Please note, the university has voluntarily extended this benefit program through September 30, 2021.

Before applying, employees are required to review the information in the Family First Coronavirus Response Act Fact Sheet. Employees are also encouraged to review the information in the Families First Coronavirus Response Act. Additionally, if you are taking leave because you are experiencing symptoms related to COVID-19, you have tested positive, or you have been exposed to the virus, please complete the COVID-19 Screening Checklist to answer a series of screening questions if you have not already done so.
