Intermittent leave

What is intermittent leave?

Leaves may be taken as an intermittent/reduced schedule leave in the following situations:

• For the employee’s serious health condition or the serious health condition of a family member when medically necessary or when best accommodated through such scheduling.
• For covered service member leave when medically necessary or when best accommodated through such scheduling.
• For a qualifying exigency leave.

An employee requesting intermittent/reduced schedule leave may be transferred temporarily to an available alternative position or to a part-time position with an equivalent rate and benefits if such a position better accommodates the need for intermittent/reduced schedule leave.
