Policy 250 - Leave Administration

Lower Columbia College, aware of its obligations under RCW 50A and WAC 192, Family Medical Leave Act of 1993, WAC 357-31, and all related chapters of the Revised Code of Washington, will provide and administer a program for employee leaves of absence. This program will serve both the well-being of LCC’s employees and the organization as a whole. Leave will be administrated in good faith, consistent with the rights and responsibilities provided for by law and in collective bargaining agreements, including those responsibilities placed upon the employee to provide the notice and information necessary for the district to effectively direct its workforce and serve the best interest of students.
