Employees are eligible to participate in this plan from the first day of employment.

Employees are eligible to participate in this plan 60 days after date of hire.

Paid Parental Leave (PPL)

Paid Parental Leave of absence is offered to non-probationary, full time and part time employees who meet FMLA eligibility guidelines. The purpose of PPL is to enable MSD employees to care for and bond with a newborn or a newly adopted or newly placed child. This policy runs concurrently with Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) leave, as applicable.
