OPM has posted eight revised leave fact sheets on their website:
Sick Leave (General Information)
Sick Leave for Personal Medical Needs
Sick Leave for Family Care and Bereavement
Sick Leave to Care for a Family Member with a Serious Health Condition
Emergency Leave Transfer Program
Voluntary Leave Transfer Program
They have also posted three new fact sheets:
Definitions Related to Family Member and Immediate Relative
Funeral Leave and Other Bereavement Options
***
Most of these duplicate what is in the ELM. In particular postal employees should see “Effect of Extended Leave Without Pay (LWOP) (or Other Nonpay Status) on Federal Benefits and Programs.” This is the best explanation of the effect of LWOP on federal benefits that I’ve seen anywhere.
