What is a leave of absence? It could mean many things!
A leave could be job-protected under FMLA, CFRA, PDL (or other state equivalent), a paid leave under SDI or PFL (or other state equivalent), and unpaid leave, a non-protected leave, a leave pursuant to a company policy, etc.
This session of Newfront Office Hours covers how each form of a leave of absence comes with different health plan coverage, payment, and other compliance issues.
