FMLA and WFMLA PROVISIONS
The Office of State Employment Relations (OSER) developed a
side-by-side comparison of FMLA and WFMLA provisions that
outline all facets of both programs and which program is more
generous. The employee is always eligible to receive the more
generous provision. The Department of Workforce Development also
provides a comparison guide and FAQ on their
website.
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) summarizes all FMLA
provisions in
Fact Sheet #28: The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993.
The DOL also has a
website dedicated to the FMLA and a
FMLA poster that must be posted by the employer.
The Department of Workforce Development outlines WFMLA
provisions in
Equal Rights Publication ERD-8007-P (Spanish
version) and provides a
WFMLA poster that must be posted by the employer.
UW System Administration General Counsel's
website
outlines WFMLA and FMLA provisions (includes links to an FAQ and
slide show presentation).
The full text of the FMLA Final Rule can be found in
29
CFR Part 825 (the actual Act begins on page 141 of the PDF).
The WFMLA was created by
Wis. Stats. §103.10 and its implementation is outlined in
Wis. Admin. Code Ch. DWD 225.
