Aimee Bodge & Others v. Commonwealth & Others

Summary

The court held that the Paid Family and Medical Leave Act does not require employers to continue accruing vacation time, sick time, seniority, or length-of-service credit while an employee is on leave. The statute instead protects the employee's previously accrued benefits and requires restoration to the same or an equivalent position without loss of those benefits. The court affirmed dismissal of the plaintiffs' PFMLA claims and remanded for further proceedings consistent with its opinion.
