§ 82-335. Failure to return from leave
Latest version.
If an employee notifies the county of his intent not to return from FMLA leave or fails to return from leave, coverage will cease and the employee will be notified of his rights under COBRA. The COBRA event does not occur until the employee in a FMLA status fails to return to work at the appointed time. Therefore, any coverage not continued during FMLA status will not be eligible to be continued under COBRA. COBRA requires continuation of coverage that is in effect on the day of the COBRA event.
