What is California Family Rights Act (CFRA)?
California Family Rights Act of 1995 is designated to coincide with FMLA to achieve the common goal of providing employees the right to reinstatement to the original or similar position and continued coverage under their health plans. Entitlement provides 12 weeks of unpaid job protected leave within a 12 month period for the serious health condition of the employee, the spouse, or an immediate family member, care for a child after pregnancy (does not cover pregnancy), and the adoption of a child. Must have worked 12 months or 1250 hours to qualify. Employees disability due to childbirth is not covered, however it is covered by Pregnancy Disability leave and FMLA.
Under the California Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), employees disabled by childbirth or related medical conditions are eligible to take a pregnancy disability leave (PDL) for any period of actual disability caused by pregnancy, childbirth, or related conditions up to four months for a full-time employee per pregnancy, regardless of length of employment within the District. The leave runs concurrently with FMLA but not CFRA.
