Effective February 28, 2008 Section 24.01 of the ITPE Health & Welfare Plan shall be amended to read as follows:
"24.01 Eligibility for Family and Medical Leave. Eligibility for Family and Medical leave is governed by the Federal Family and Medical Leave Act ("FMLA") which, in general, provides that eligible employees are entitled to up to twelve (12) weeks of unpaid leave for the following circumstances:
- The birth of a child of the Employee in order to care for such child;
- The placement of a child with the Employee for adoption or foster care;
- Caring for a spouse, child or parent who has a serious health condition;
- A serious health condition of the Employee which renders him or her unable to perform the functions of a position of such Employee.
Effective February 28, 2008 the FMLA also provides that eligible Employees who are a spouse, son, daughter, parent or next of kin, are entitled to up to 26 workweeks of unpaid leave to care for a "member of the Armed Forces, including a member of the National Guard or Reserves, who is undergoing medical treatment, recuperation, or therapy, is otherwise in outpatient status, or is otherwise on the temporary disability retired list, for a serious injury or illness."
A determination as to whether an Employee is eligible for Family and Medical Leave is governed by the FMLA and not by the provisions of the Plan."
