FMLA Rights & Responsibilities Notice In general, to be eligible for FMLA you must have worked for an employer for at least 12 months, meet the hours of service requirement (1,250 hours) in the 12 months preceding the leave, and work at a site with at least 50 employees within 75 miles. You must also have FMLA entitlement available in the applicable 12-month period. If your leave qualifies and is certified as FMLA, your absences will be designated as FMLA leave and will count against your FMLA entitlement. Your Rights Under the FMLA 



 

You are entitled to 12 weeks of unpaid leave in the 12-month period (26 weeks to care for a covered servicemember with a serious health condition), measured backward from the date of any FMLA usage (“rolling backward” calculation method). You are not required to use accrued paid time off during your unpaid FMLA leave. You may supplement your leave with paid time off, if applicable. Any applicable conditions related to the usage of paid time off, as set by Amazon, will apply. If paid time off is used, the absences will also be designated as FMLA and will count against your FMLA entitlement. If you do not meet the conditions or requirements for usage of paid time off, you remain entitled to unpaid FMLA leave. Your health benefits must be maintained during your FMLA leave, as if you continued to work. You must be reinstated to the same or an equivalent job with the same pay, benefits, and terms and conditions of employment on your return from FMLA-protected leave. (If your leave extends beyond the end of your FMLA entitlement, you do not have return rights under FMLA. Certain circumstances, such as a reduction in workforce or your position no longer exists, could also prevent your reinstatement.)

Your Responsibilities Under the FMLA 



If required by Amazon, you must submit sufficient certification or documentation in a timely manner, or your leave may be delayed or denied. If your leave is delayed or denied, any absences may be subject to the attendance policy and could result in termination. You must make your share of any premium payments to maintain your health benefits. You have a minimum 30day grace period in which to make premium payments. If payment is not made timely, your group health insurance may be cancelled, provided we notify you in writing at least 15 days before the date that your health coverage will lapse, or, at our option, we may pay your share of the premiums during FMLA leave, and recover these payments from you upon your return to work. If you do not return to work, you may be required to reimburse Amazon for our share of health insurance premiums paid on your behalf during your FMLA leave. You may be required to provide Amazon with periodic reports of your status and intent to return to work. Generally, these updates will be required every 30 days, depending on the circumstances of your leave.

After we have obtained sufficient information to make a determination, we will notify you within five business days whether your leave will be designated as FMLA and count against your FMLA entitlement. If you have any questions, please contact the Disability and Leave Services (DLS) team at 1-888-892-7180, option 1. Representatives are available between 5:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. PST, Monday through Friday.

FMLA Frequently Asked Questions 1.

What is the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)? The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides eligible employees up to 12 workweeks of unpaid leave a year for various family and medical reasons, and requires group health benefits to be maintained during the leave as if employees continued to work instead of taking leave. Employees are also entitled to return to their same or an equivalent job at the end of their FMLA leave. The FMLA also provides certain military family leave entitlements. Eligible employees may take FMLA leave for specified reasons related to certain military deployments of their family members. Additionally, they may take up to 26 weeks of FMLA leave in a single 12-month period to care for a covered servicemember with a serious injury or illness.

Who can take FMLA leave? In order to be eligible to take leave under the FMLA, an employee must:  work for a covered employer;  have worked 1,250 hours during the 12 months prior to the start of leave;  work at a location where the employer has 50 or more employees within 75 miles; and  have worked for the employer for 12 months. The 12 months of employment are not required to be consecutive in order for the employee to qualify for FMLA leave. In general, only employment within seven years is counted unless the break in service is (1) due to an employee’s fulfillment of military obligations, or (2) governed by a collective bargaining agreement or other written (2) agreement.

When can an eligible employee use FMLA leave? A covered employer must grant an eligible employee up to a total of 12 workweeks of unpaid, job-protected leave in a 12 month period for one or more of the following reasons:  for the birth of a son or daughter, and to bond with the newborn child;  for the placement with the employee of a child for adoption or foster care, and to bond with that child;  to care for an immediate family member (spouse, child, or parent – but not a parent “in-law”) with a serious health condition;  to take medical leave when the employee is unable to work because of a serious health condition; or  for qualifying exigencies arising out of the fact that the employee’s spouse, son, daughter, or parent is on covered active duty or call to covered active duty status as a member of the National Guard, Reserves, or Regular Armed Forces. The FMLA also allows eligible employees to take up to 26 workweeks of unpaid, job-protected leave in a “single 12-month period” to care for a covered servicemember with a serious injury or illness.

Does Amazon allow FMLA leaves for domestic partners? Yes, Amazon allows FMLA leave to be used to care for a domestic partner in the same way leave can be used to care for a spouse.

Does an employee have to take leave all at once under FMLA or can it be taken periodically or to reduce the employee’s schedule? When it is medically necessary, employees may take FMLA leave intermittently – taking leave in separate blocks of time for a single qualifying reason, or on a reduced leave schedule – reducing the employee’s usual weekly or daily work schedule. When leave is needed for planned medical treatment, the employee must make a reasonable effort to schedule treatment so as not to unduly disrupt the employer’s operation. Leave to care for or bond with a newborn child or for a newly placed adopted or foster child may not be taken intermittently, per Amazon’s policy (FMLA for bonding can be taken in two segments), unless otherwise allowed by state/local law, and must conclude within 12 months after the birth or placement.

FMLA Frequently Asked Questions 6.

What is a serious health condition under FMLA? The most common serious health conditions that qualify for FMLA leave are:  conditions requiring an overnight stay in a hospital or other medical care facility;  conditions that incapacitate you or your family member (for example, unable to work or attend school) for more than three consecutive days and have ongoing medical treatment (either multiple appointments with a health care provider, or a single appointment and follow-up care such as prescription medication);  chronic conditions that cause occasional periods when you or your family member are incapacitated and require treatment by a health care provider atleast twice a year; and  pregnancy (including prenatal medical appointments, incapacity due to morning sickness, and medically required bed rest).

What happens to my health benefits while I am out on FMLA leave? A covered employer is required to maintain group health insurance coverage, including family coverage, for an employee on FMLA leave on the same terms as if the employee continued to work. Where appropriate, arrangements will need to be made for employees taking unpaid FMLA leave to pay their share of health insurance premiums. An employer's obligation to maintain health benefits under FMLA stops if and when an employee informs the employer of an intent not to return to work at the end of the leave period, or if the employee fails to return to work when the FMLA leave entitlement is exhausted. The employer's obligation also stops if the employee's premium payment is more than 30 days late and the employer has given the employee written notice at least 15 days in advance advising that coverage will cease if payment is not received. In some circumstances, the employer may recover premiums it paid to maintain health insurance coverage for an employee who fails to return to work from FMLA leave.

What is the process when I request an FMLA leave? Amazon may require that the need for leave for a serious health condition of the employee or the employee’s immediate family member be supported by a certification issued by a health care provider. Amazon may also require that the need for leave to care for a covered servicemember with a serious injury or illness or military qualifying exigency be supported by appropriate certification. The form must be submitted to the Leave of Absence and Accommodations (LOAA) team by the due date listed in your FMLA materials. If the certification is incomplete or insufficient, you will be notified, in writing that includes what additional information is required, and you will be given additional time to cure the deficiency. If you provide authorization/release, the LOAA team will also make attempts to clarify the information with the healthcare provider. After the LOAA team receives a completed certification, your leave will be approved or denied based on the information that was received. You will be notified of the decision. If your FMLA leave is denied, you may be eligible for other leave options, including state or local leave laws or Amazon LOA policies.

How long does it take the LOAA team to process an FMLA request? After the LOAA team has sufficient information to determine whether your leave is FMLA-qualifying (for example, after your certification is received), you will be notified whether the leave will be designated as FMLA leave within five business days, absent extenuating circumstances.

10. How does FMLA leave impact any disability claim that I might have? FMLA runs concurrently with any short-term disability (STD) benefits for which you are approved. FMLA will run during the approved STD period, if applicable, until FMLA entitlement is exhausted. Your STD claim will remain open for as long as you meet the requirements of the STD policy. 11. What happens if my FMLA request is denied? You will be notified, in writing, including the reason your leave was not approved. You may be eligible for other leave options, including leave under state or local leave laws or Amazon LOA policies generally. 12. What happens if I am not able to return to work at the end of my approved FMLA leave? You should contact the LOAA team, by calling 1-888-892-7180, option 1. You may be eligible for other leave options, including state or local leave laws or Amazon LOA policies. You may also be entitled to an accommodation, including leave of absence as an accommodation, under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and/or other applicable laws. While this document is intended to provide a summary of general information regarding FMLA leave, in the event of a conflict between this document and the governing documents for any such benefits or policy, the terms of such governing documents will control. Please note these FAQs pertain only to the FMLA. An employee may have greater leave rights under state and local law. Please contact MyLeave at 888-892-7180, option 1, if you have any questions about leave under state or local law.

Short-Term Disability Frequently Asked Questions 1. When am I eligible to file for short-term disability benefits? Any employee who is classified as a regular employee, and assigned to work a minimum of 30 hours per week may be eligible for short-term disability (STD) benefits after the employee has completed one day of work and any other eligibility requirements as contained in the Summary Plan Document (SPD), which at all times governs. In addition, you must also meet the following requirements in order to be eligible to receive disability benefits (or as otherwise required under the SPD):  Unable to perform the material and substantial duties of your own job due to illness, injury, or pregnancy,  Receiving regular and appropriate care and treatment for the illness or injury that is intended to aid in recovery and return to work, and  Not be working at any job, in order to receive the full disability benefit. (You may later be eligible for a partial benefit if you initially qualify and are then employed in your own job or another job, earning between 20% and 80% of your Basic Weekly Earnings.) 2.

When are STD benefits paid? Amazon Disability & Leave Services (DLS) (or Amazon’s Third Party Administrator (TPA)) must receive proof that you are disabled due to injury or illness as defined in the SPD. You must satisfy a seven-day elimination period, meaning that the disability payment will begin on the eighth consecutive calendar day of an approved disability. For claims related to pregnancy (pre-partum or post-partum disability), you must be disabled for seven calendar days, after which the benefit will be paid retroactively to the initial date of disability or the date of delivery, whichever is earlier.

Can I use my paid time off during the elimination period for short-term disability? You can use available accrued paid time off, such as vacation or personal time, to cover all or part of the elimination period, if applicable. If you do not have enough paid time off to cover the entire waiting period, the portion that is not covered will be unpaid.

Can I initiate my STD claim early? You may call in your claim 90 days in advance of the start date of your leave of absence. No claim decision can be made until your disability is certified by your healthcare provider. When your date of disability arrives, Disability & Leave Services (DLS) or Amazon’s TPA will contact your healthcare provider to obtain the necessary information or certification, and confirm your date of disability.

What benefits are payable for an STD claim due to illness or injury? In general, after you satisfy the seven-day waiting period, you will receive STD benefits equivalent to 60% of your Basic Weekly Earnings, up to a maximum of $2,300 per week, less other income benefits or earnings (e.g., workers’ compensation or state/local disability benefits). Benefits are payable for up to 25 weeks, as long as you meet all provisions of the STD policy.

What benefits are available for pregnancy-related STD claims? In general, you will receive STD benefits equivalent to 100% of your salary or wages during the pre-partum disability period (four weeks prior to your estimated delivery date) and post-partum disability period (10 weeks after your actual delivery date).

What is the process when I file an STD claim? DLS or Amazon’s TPA will review the claim for eligibility. STD eligibility is dependent on the requirements listed in the STD policy. After your eligibility is verified, DLS or the TPA will:  Contact your physician to verify your disability and obtain documentation to support your disability, if applicable, and  Make a claim decision and notify you whether your claim is approved or denied. Note: you and your healthcare provider must provide sufficient information by the due date listed in your packet, or your claim may be delayed or denied. Please review the entire packet as soon as you receive it and ensure that all required documentation is submitted in a timely manner. Contact DLS if you have any questions.

Short-Term Disability Frequently Asked Questions 8.

What happens to my STD claim if my physician will not speak to DLS? DLS or Amazon’s TPA will contact you if we are unable to reach your physician or obtain sufficient medical information. If you submit a signed Authorization Form, DLS will work with your physician to obtain the necessary information. You may also be asked to contact your physician and have the necessary documentation supplied for your claim.

How long does DLS need to process an STD claim? A decision on an STD claim can typically be made within five business days. However, the time to process your claim depends on timely responses from you and your physician so that DLS or Amazon’s TPA has the necessary information to approve or deny a claim.

10. After my claim is approved, when will I receive my STD pay? After a claim has been approved, you will receive your paycheck on the next scheduled pay date or on the designated date set by Amazon. 11. How does FMLA leave impact any disability claim that I might have? FMLA runs concurrently with any short-term disability (STD) benefits for which you are approved to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law. FMLA will run during the approved STD period, if applicable, until FMLA entitlement is exhausted. Your STD claim will remain open for as long as you meet the requirements of the STD policy. 12. What is my role in the STD claim process? You can expedite the claim process by promptly completing and returning the required documentation, and ensuring your healthcare provider submits the medical certification. Please advise your healthcare provider that DLS will be contacting him or her to confirm your disability and to obtain medical documentation. During your STD claim, you must keep DLS or Amazon’s TPA informed of your progress and treatments, as well as any potential return-to-work information. Please ask your healthcare provider to respond to us in a timely manner regarding your ongoing disability status. 13. What should I do when my health care provider releases me to return to work after short-term disability? Contact DLS or Amazon’s TPA when your healthcare provider releases you to return to work. You may be required to submit a fitness for duty form certifying that you are able to return to work. We will coordinate all return-to-work arrangements. 14. What happens if I can return to work after short-term disability, but I have restrictions? Notify DLS or Amazon’s TPA immediately upon discovering you have, or will have, return-to-work restrictions. We will coordinate your return to work and work with you to determine if we can accommodate your restrictions. If you have been released to return to work on a part-time schedule, you may continue to receive partial disability benefits for the work time you miss until your claim reaches a maximum benefit period or until you return to work full duty. 15. What happens if my STD claim is denied? You will be notified, in writing, including the reason your claim was not approved. You will also receive information about the appeal process. 16. What happens when I exhaust my STD benefits? When your STD benefits exhaust, you may qualify for long-term disability (LTD) benefits. Approximately two-thirds of the way through your STD claim, DLS or Amazon’s TPA will contact you to gather information about your potential return to work or your need for continued leave. If you remain unable to work, DLS will provide you with information regarding the LTD claim process. If you are not eligible for LTD benefits, or do not have this benefit, please contact DLS or Amazon’s TPA to learn about other options. While this document is intended to summarize accurately the benefits described above, in the event of a conflict between this document and the governing plan documents for any such benefits, the terms of such governing documents will control.

Please contact the Employee Resource Center (ERC) for more information about payroll deductions.

PTO, Vacation, and Attendance Policies PTO and Vacation Use During LOA If you will be on unpaid leave or partially paid leave (such as short-term disability leave), you may elect to have PTO apply during leave by notifying DLS.

Attendance Policies Employees in some lines of business are subject to attendance policies. If you apply for leave and miss work before your leave is approved, and your request is denied for any reason (e.g., ineligible, lack of certification, etc.), your absences could be subject to the applicable attendance policy. For example, under the North American Customer Fulfillment (NACF) Attendance Policy, the time may count against your Unpaid Time Off (UPT) balance.

PTO and Vacation Accrual Please review the policy that applies to your leave type(s) for information about accrual of Paid Time Off and Vacation Time during leave.
