(A) As used in this section:

(1) “Foster caregiver” has the same meaning as in section 5103.02 of the Revised Code.

(2) “Kinship caregiver” has the same meaning as in section 5101.85 of the Revised Code.

(B) Each permanent full-time and permanent part-time employee paid in accordance with section 124.152 of the Revised Code and each employee listed in division (B)(2), (3), or (4) of section 124.14 of the Revised Code who works thirty or more hours per week, and who is a foster caregiver or kinship caregiver is eligible, on placement of a child in the employee’s home, to a maximum of five days of caregiver leave with full pay in a calendar year. Caregiver leave eligibility begins on the day on which the child is placed with the prospective foster caregiver or kinship caregiver.

(C) The average number of regular hours worked, which shall include all hours of holiday pay and other types of paid leave, during the three-month period immediately preceding the day caregiver leave begins shall be used to determine eligibility for leave under this section for part-time employees. If an employee has not worked for a three-month period, the number of hours for which the employee has been scheduled to work per week during the employee’s period of employment shall be used to determine eligibility for leave under this section.

(D) Use of caregiver leave does not affect an employee’s eligibility for other forms of paid leave granted under this chapter and does not prohibit an employee from taking leave under the “Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993,” 29 U.S.C. § 2601, except that caregiver leave shall be included in any leave time provided under that act.

(E) The director of administrative services may adopt rules in accordance with Chapter 119 of the Revised Code governing caregiver leave established under this section.
