06. How do I know if I have a serious health condition or a family member has a serious health condition?

Subject: 
Family Medical Leave

The definition of a serious health condition includes:

  1. Hospital care
  2. Absence of four days or more plus treatment two or more times (also includes one treatment and continuing supervision)
  3. Pregnancy complications, postpartum healing
  4. Chronic conditions requiring treatments
  5. Permanent long-term conditions requiring supervision
  6. Multiple treatments (non-chronic conditions)

The OFLA definition of a serious health condition closely tracks the FMLA serious health condition definition.
