  • Expanded Medical Leave Under the Families First Coronavirus
    Expanded Medical Leave Under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act Recognizes that it takes a Village to Raise a Child By: Alison Smith, Partner in Kelley Kronenberg’s Fort Lauderdale office. By now, most employers are familiar with, and have had to implement, aspects of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (“FFCRA”), (i.e., paid and/or family medical leave). Pursuant to the Emergency Family and Medical Leave Expansion Act (“EFMLA”), which as the name suggests, expands the Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”), most employers with fewer than 500 employees are required to provide any employee who has worked for their company for at least 30 days, up to 12 weeks of job-protected leave. The first 10 days are unpaid (unless the employee requests paid sick leave or uses accrued leave time), and the remainder is paid for up to another 10 weeks (assuming the employee has not already used or exhausted FMLA leave for other qualifying reasons). Pay provided must be no less than two-thirds of the employee's regular rate, capped at $200 per day and $10,000 in the aggregate. This leave is specifically permitted so that the employee (who must not be able to work or telecommute), can provide child care for a son or daughter under the age of 18 if that child’s school or place of care is closed, or the childcare provider is unavailable due to a public health emergency (or, if the child is 18 years of age or older, has a mental or physical disability and is incapable of self-care because of that disability).

  • Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) FAQS for the Child Care Qualifying Reason and Return to School
    Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) FAQS for the Child Care Qualifying Reason and Return to School H.R. 6201, the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFRCA), went into effect April 1, 2020 and will apply through December 31, 2020. In addition to other applicable leave available to state employees, H.R. 6201 provides eligible employees who are unable to work or telework due to certain qualifying reasons related to COVID-19 with a period of paid leave. Division E of the FFCRA, the “Emergency Paid Sick Leave Act” (EPSLA) entitles employees to take up to two weeks of paid sick leave for certain qualifying reasons. Also, Division C of the FFCRA, the “Emergency Family and Medical Leave Expansion Act” (EFMLA) permits eligible employees to take up to twelve weeks of expanded Family and Medical Leave for certain qualifying reasons. The law provides that employers who are health care providers or emergency responders may elect to exclude their employees from these provisions. Also, employers can exclude employees who are health care providers or emergency responders from these provisions even if the employer has not excluded its entire agency from the provisions. The qualifying childcare reason is when a person unable to work or telework because they are caring for their child whose school or place of care is closed (or childcare provider is unavailable) due to COVID-19 related reasons. 1. If an employee is home with their child because their school or place of care is closed, or childcare provider is unavailable, are they entitled to paid sick leave, expanded family and medical leave, or both—how do they interact? An employee may be eligible for both types of leave, but only for a total of twelve weeks of paid leave.

  • Understanding and Coping with Mitochondrial Disease
    From the parents’ view … When we first heard that our daughter, Alexis, was diagnosed with Mitochondrial disease, we really didn't know what it was. We also learned that not too many people had heard of it before. Our daughter had many tests performed to reach the diagnosis of Mitochondrial disease. So once we received the news we were actually glad to finally have some answers. No parent wants their child to be ill, but we have learned to accept the disease and live with it on a day to day basis. We also learned that each person with Mitochondrial disease is affected differently by it. Alexis is severely affected by the disease, so each day with her is special. Meeting other children with Mitochondrial disease and their families have become a great support for us. We can relate to their daily struggles and if we need advice, they are there for us. My advice that I would give to others affected by Mitochondrial disease is to not give up. We can all fight this disease together. The hardest part sometimes is people not knowing enough about the disease. We really need to start educating people about it. Chris and Stephanie Understanding and coping with Mitochondrial disease A guide for parents The health care team at the Neuromuscular and Neurometabolic Centre wrote this book to answer some common questions about Mitochondrial disease. We hope that you will find it helpful. During your child’s care, you will meet the members of our team. We will work closely with you and your child to meet your needs.
