I am trying to find out if there is any specific form to use in Massachusetts when an employee who is not eligible for FML is requesting maternity leave. The employee is allowed 8 weeks of maternity leave. I have the rules, but I can't find a form.

    There is no specific form. The employee is simply required to give you notice of her expected date of departure on leave (subject to the baby's opinion on the matter!) and her intention to return eight weeks later. That's it. This can be done by a simple letter from her to you. Good luck. If you have any other questions, I can be reached at [email]sfentin@skoler-abbott.com[/email].
