To answer your question of " Just to clarify, you are saying we will be considered the same employer for FMLA, leave accrual and longevity, but not for FLSA?", I'm not fully able to address whether or not state agencies and higher education institutions will be considered one employer once the two begin operating under separate FEIN's. Matt may be able to provide a legal opinion to answer that question. State agencies will continue to count qualifying service at higher education institutions for FMLA eligibility and leave accruals. State agencies will not count hours worked at higher education institutions with respect to calculating overtime.

Kind regards, Linda From: Bowers, Rachell [mailto:rbowers at osrhe.edu] Sent: Friday, September 18, 2015 9:48 AM To: 'wright.melody at core.state.ok.us'; Linda Bove Cc: Schilling, Tiffany Subject: Higher Edu Question In the past FMLA as well as FLSA time has been cumulative for all state service. For example: When an employee works full-time for another state agency and does part-time work for our agency , the time worked for our agency is considered over-time because we were looked at as one state employer. Will this remain the case after the decoupling? Rachell Bowers Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education (405) 225-9448 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
