Team members failing to provide a release to return to work when required to do so will not be permitted to resume work until it is provided. Legal Compliance This policy will be interpreted and applied in accordance with applicable federal, state and local laws, and to the extent that this policy may conflict with those laws and/or amendment thereof, those laws are controlling over this policy. Further, the Company retains all available rights and defenses under applicable law, whether or not specifically set forth in this policy. Workers’ Compensation Disability Leave The Company will grant a Workers’ Compensation Disability leave to team members with occupational illnesses or injuries in accordance with State law. As an alternative, the Company will try to reasonably accommodate such team members with modified work duties or schedules, in its discretion if such work or schedules are available. Military Leave (Active and Reserve Service) The Company is proud of its team members who serve as members of the United States Armed Forces and provides Military Leave to the full extent provided by federal and state law.

Please contact the Team Member Relations Department with any questions regarding the nature, extent and circumstances relating to such leaves.

The deceased must be a spouse, same-sex domestic partner, child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, parent-in-law, grandparent, or sibling of the team member.

Team members who are empanelled on a jury and require extended time for jury duty leave must contact the Team Member Relations Department to discuss the requested leave. Jury duty will be unpaid unless otherwise required by applicable state or local law. Upon written request to the Team Member Relations Department, team members may take accrued, unused vacation time during this leave.
