Use in weekly blocks; use in coordination with other leave; unused paid parental leave; leave accrual during use. Employees must take paid parental leave in weekly blocks (40 hours over the course of a single work week or, for eligible employees who work less than full time, one- fourth of the amount of leave available to them under section A.) and must use all paid parental leave during approved AFLA or FMLA leave for the qualifying event.

Employees that are awarded non-cashable leave under subsection A. will not accrue leave or sick leave while on paid parental leave. 3. One award per rolling 12-month period; to eligible employees. In no case will an employee receive more than one award of 160 hours of non-cashable (or the prorated amount for employees that work less than full time) leave as paid parental leave in a rolling 12-month period, regardless of whether more than one birth, adoption, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ care placement, or other qualifying event occurs within that twelve-month time frame. The birth or placement of more than one child at the same time will be treated as one qualifying event for which an employee will receive a total of 160 hours (or the prorated portion of hours for employees that work less than full time).
