*NEW* COVID-19 Leave Under DCFMLA

This webpage was last updated on January 14, 2022.

In 2020 and 2021, through a series of legislative acts, the D.C. Council amended the DC Family Medical Leave Act (DCFMLA), adding a form of leave known as “COVID-19 Leave.”  This leave ran from March 11, 2020, through November 5, 2021 (“Original COVID-19 Leave”).  OHR’s guidance on the Original COVID-19 leave can be found here and below, under "Resources".
