Wash. Admin. Code § 192-610-066 - How will the department make employees aware of their rights and responsibilities?
(1) The department will publish and post on
its web site an informational employee guide for basic information on the laws,
rules and procedures for the paid family and medical leave program. A copy of
the guide will be available to the public at no charge when
requested.
(2) The department will
send an electronic link to the guide to employees who file an application for
benefits and have authorized the department to contact them by email or other
electronic means. For employees who have not authorized the department to
contact them electronically, the department will send a written notice
containing the web address for the guide and a phone number for the
department.
(3) The department will
maintain a brief descriptive web address for the online location of the
employee guide.
(4) Employees are
responsible for filing weekly applications and following all instructions as
required in the employee guide.
(5)
When requested, the department will assist employers and employees in
understanding the employee guide.
(6) All employees are presumed to understand
the employee guide and will be held responsible for failing to comply with its
contents.
(7) If a conflict exists
between the employee guide and spoken information provided by the department,
the written information will prevail.
