Family Care Proposal
Adds Domestic Partners
Proposed
Modification to Family Care and Medical Leave Policy
The Laboratory proposes to modify its personnel policy
by revising 2.13(B) (Family Care and Medical Leave -
FMLA) by adding same- or opposite-sex domestic partners
to the list of individuals requiring care for whom an
employee may request FMLA. This change will conform
Laboratory FMLA policy to UC Staff policy. These changes
affect non-represented employees only. Represented employees
should review their union agreements or contact their
union representatives for information regarding their
situation. Full text of the policy can be found here.
Those who wish to comment on this change must do so
by e-mail or in writing by April 7 to Mary Bishop,
Policies Analyst, at 937R0600, or [email protected].

honored with $40,000 grants in molecular biology. The
fellowships are awarded annually to recognize and support
young scientists and scholars in seven fields: chemistry,
computational and evolutionary molecular biology, computer
science, economics, mathematics, neuroscience, and physics.
