FFCRA Employee Notification Poster

Submitted by Jennifer R Wilson

The Families First Coronavirus Response Act went into effect on April 1, 2020. Two provisions in the act directly affect employers’ obligations to provide a measure of leave pay under certain circumstances related to the pandemic. They are the Emergency Paid Sick Leave Act (EPSLA) and the Emergency Family and Medical Leave Expansion Act (EFMLEA).

The Department of Labor has advised that employers can provide official notice of employee rights under this act electronically instead of on an official office bulletin board. You can find the FFCRA notification on the COVID-19 Resources website. Local unit directors should share this information with local employees. A summary of the key points of the act is also available on that website.

If you have questions about these leave benefits, contact Jennifer Wilson at jrwilson@ksu.edu.
