With some exceptions, employees are entitled to 12 weeks within a one-year period.  That exhausts the FMLA leave entitlement except for military caregivers leave, which can extend to 26 weeks in one leave year.  Under OFLA, women taking any pregnancy disability leave are allowed an additional 12 weeks for any OFLA purpose. Either parent who has taken a full 12 weeks of parental leave (e.g., to care for a newborn, newly adopted child or newly placed foster child) are also entitled to take up to an additional 12 weeks leave to care for a child with a non-serious health condition requiring home care.

Oregon Paid Family and Medical Leave (OR PFML) and OFLA are designed to run together for leave taken under both laws. Once an employee takes OR PFML, the law also limits the total amount of leave available for that benefit year to 16 weeks (up to 12 of which may be taken as OR PFML). Employees may also take an additional two weeks of OR PFML for pregnancy disability, bringing the total leave available for that benefit year up to 18 weeks.
