Combined Jewish Philanthropies

CJP’s normal business hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. The normal work day is seven (7) hours and the normal work week is 35 hours. Staff on flexible work hours, work 35 hours a week with individualized starting and ending times that are the same throughout the week or a varying daily schedule that starts or ends at different times each day. The primary criterion for determining approval for flexible work hours at CJP is whether a flexible work arrangement meets the business needs of an employee’s workplace. Eligibility for participation in a flexible work arrangement will depend on an assessment by the department head that the employee’s proposed work schedule will enable the employee to fully meet job responsibilities and performance expectations.

Paid Parental Leave

Employees who have at least one (1) year of service and generally work at least 20 hours per week are eligible for paid parental leave in accordance with this policy. Eligible employees who are the parents of a newborn baby, newly adopted baby or child under the age of eighteen (18), a newly adopted child under the age of twenty-three (23) if the child is mentally or physically disabled, or a child placed with the employee pursuant to a court order are eligible to receive pay during a parental leave of absence equal to three (3) weeks after one (1) year of service and six (6) weeks after two (2) years of service.

Paid Parental Leave does not extend the period of unpaid leave under the FMLA or MPLA, but, rather, runs concurrently with both, if applicable.

Paid Parental Leave may be used on an intermittent basis, but must be used within six (6) months of the birth or adoption of the child. Unused paid parental leave will be forfeited.
