An employee who does not provide this <br />certification will not be permitted to return to work until such a certification is provided. <br /> <br />An employee on a Family or Medical Leave will be required to furnish the company with periodic <br />reports regarding his or her status and intent to return to work. If the circumstances of the employee’s <br />leave changes and the employee will be able to return to work earlier than anticipated, the employee <br />will be required to notify the company at least two work days prior to the date the employee intends to <br />return to work. <br /> <br />An employee who returns from a Family or Medical Leave shall return to the position held at the <br />beginning of the leave or to an equivalent position with equivalent employment benefits, pay and <br />other terms and conditions of employment, provided however, that an employee is not entitled to <br />return to a position other than that to which he or she would have been entitled had the employee not <br />taken the leave. An employee’s right to reinstatement, however, may be affected if he or she is not <br />determined to be a “key employee,” as defined by the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993. <br />Generally, an employee shall be notified of his or her “key employee” status at the time any Family or <br />Medical Leave is requested or when it commences, if earlier. <br /> <br />As with all other leaves of absence, failure of an employee to report for work at the time at which he <br />or she is regularly scheduled to report at the termination of a Family or Medical Leave, or to secure an <br />approved extension of leave in advance, may result in discipline up to and including termination of <br />employment. <br /> <br /> <br />Military Leave of Absence <br />Eligible employees are permitted unpaid time off to serve on duty with a uniformed service such as the United <br />States Reserve Corps, National Guard, or a branch of the United States Armed Forces.

The employee may be required to provide satisfactory evidence of his or her actual performance of <br />his or her service. An employee should notify management of the expected date of departure and, where <br />possible, the return, as soon as he or she receives his or her orders. <br /> <br /> <br />Maximum Absence Allowed <br />No type of approved leave or combination of approved leaves is permitted to exceed six months per year, <br />except as required by law. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Docusign Envelope ID: 177AA06A-30B4-42FF-A85A-78B5A7C51DBE
