Designation Notice. 1. When the institution has enough information to determine whether the leave is being taken for an FMLA-qualifying reason (e.g., after receiving a certification), the institution must notify the employee in writing whether the leave will be designated and will be counted as FMLA leave within five business days absent extenuating circumstances. If the institution has sufficient information to designate the leave as FMLA leave immediately after receiving notice of the employee’s need for leave, the institution may provide the employee with the designation notice at that time. 2. If an institution does not designate leave as required in XII.C.1., the institution may retroactively designate leave as FMLA leave with appropriate notice to the employee provided that the institution’s failure to timely designate leave does not cause harm or injury to the employee.
