The U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division (WHD) published new frequentlyasked questions (FAQs) for workers and employers about qualifying for paid leave underthe Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) related to the reopening of schools.

with distance learning. WHD offers this information to explain the benefits andprotections available under both the paid sick leave and the expanded family and medicalleave provisions of the FFCRA.

The FFCRA allows certain employees to take up to two weeks of paid sick leave and take upto 12 weeks of expanded family and medical leave, 10 of which are paid, for specifiedreasons related to COVID-19. An eligible employee can take both types of paid leave“because of a need to care for the employee’s son or daughter whose school or place of careis closed, or whose child care provider is unavailable, due to COVID-19 related reasons.”

The FAQs issued today address whether employees qualify for paid leave when:A child attends a school operating on an alternate day basis;A parent chooses remote learning when in-person instruction is available; andA school begins the year with remote learning but may shift to in-person instructionif conditions change.

WHD provides additional information on common issues employers and employees facewhen responding to the coronavirus and its effects on wages and hours worked and job-protected leave under the FMLA at https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/pandemic. ForAGC-provided resources on FFCRA and other coronavirus-related matters of significanceto construction employers, visit AGC’s coronavirus website.
