Did you know?  

When a post doc (who is not FML/CFRA eligible), is going on parental bonding leave, location teams should first code the leave using the post doc paid parental leave.  Once the post doc paid parental leave is exhausted, if the postdoc will be continuing on a personal leave for parental bonding per Leaves of Absence, Article 12, section D.4, the period of personal leave should be entered as a personal leave (not parental bonding).
