    Provo City's policy mirrors Davis County's. Please let me know if you'd like a copy of our Leave and FMLA policies!

    Davis County has the following policies regarding benefits while on unpaid leave.

    Unpaid leave - An employee in leave without pay status will not receive any County benefits during such leave. However, employees desiring insurance coverage during a leave without pay period may receive such coverage if the necessary arrangements are made beforehand with the Human Resources Department. These employees must pay the entire insurance premium for the duration of leave without pay. 

    Unpaid FML - The County will maintain an employee's health, dental, vision, and life insurance coverage at current participation levels during leave. The employee will be responsible for the employee's share of such benefits and must pay the premium as instructed. The County may deduct any such premium amounts from the employee’s final compensation.

    Bethany:

    Below is Layton City's policy regarding unpaid leave.  Please feel free to reach out if you need anything else.

    Employee Benefits During LWOP

    Except as provided under the FMLA, and except for up to a three-day grace period (two 24-hour periods in the case of a 24-hour shift employee) for only the City’s portion of the health insurance as explained below, all employee benefits will cease to accrue or be in effect immediately upon commencement of the leave-without-pay period. Health insurance benefits may be continued during the leave period if the employee pays (1) the employee portion of the premium through the grace period, and then (2) 100% of the full premium under the plan, which represents the City’s share for the remaining days the employee is on leave-without-pay. A payment covering the amount of the health insurance premiums due for the time the employee is on leave must be given to the Human Resources Division prior to commencement of the leave period. If an employee does not elect to continue health insurance coverage during leave of absence without pay, it will be necessary to reapply for health insurance upon return from leave. The preexisting condition clause in the health insurance coverage will apply.

    What are your policies for health and other insurance premium payments while an employee is on unpaid leave? Do you require the employee to reimburse your agency for the premiums on unpaid leave, giving them a grace period to pay it back after unpaid leave? Does your agency pay the premiums without requiring the employee to pay any back?
