Employees who work at least twenty hours per week will be granted a paid leave of absence of up to forty hours if they seek to undergo a medical procedure to donate bone marrow or an organ. This leave may be taken on an intermittent basis. Employees must notify their supervisor, in advance, of the length of the leave, and notify HR so the appropriate steps and documentation can begin. A document from the physician verifying the purpose and length of the leave will be required. Employees located in states other than Minnesota should consult their state addenda for state specific information concerning this policy.
