OFLA applies to employers with 25 or more employees working in Oregon during each working day of 20 or more calendar workweeks in the year in which leave will be taken, or in the preceding year. While OFLA is unpaid leave, companies that allow employees to use their paid sick leave for qualifying OFLA events would be required to pay under their sick leave policies.Employees can take up to two weeks of bereavement leave within 60 days of learning about their loved one’s death. Employees can take two weeks for each loved one’s passing in a one-year time frame. However, the bereavement leave should not exceed 12 weeks in 12-months. Employees may also take simultaneous bereavement leave.
