Timeline, Why, citation
Facts, rules, and the result sit together. The spreadsheet is not the system of record.
Get the determination — and the why
LEAN applies the program to the facts you have, calculates eligibility and pay, and keeps the source on the result. You explain the answer. You do not rebuild it from notes.
The daily work
Leave administration is still research plus a spreadsheet
If this is your week, the determination is the part LEAN should own.
- Interpreting federal and state leave laws accurately Multi-state caseloads mean the same question has a different answer depending on where someone works.
- Researching rules and calculating eligibility by hand Hours, lookbacks, waiting periods, and stacked benefits live in different systems and notes.
- Worrying about the wrong determination A missed gate or a bad offset is hard to see until someone asks you to defend it.
- Explaining the decision to employees and managers They need plain language. You still need the citation when they push back.
What changes
See it. Open why. Ask what’s missing.
The determination is computed and cited. Documents stay documents. The Why is the record.
Granted, held, denied, provisional
Open the rule and the source behind each stretch of time. Held means needs information — send the survey.
Pay you can audit
Weekly entitlement, offsets, and lookbacks are itemized. PFML, STD, and employer top-up are separate lines.
