Family and Medical Leave Act

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides eligible employees of covered employers up to 12 workweeks of unpaid, job-protected leave in a 12-month period for specified family and medical reasons – among them the employee’s own serious health condition. In certain circumstances, employees may take FMLA leave on an intermittent or reduced schedule basis. Furthermore, qualified employees with disabilities may be eligible for leave under both FMLA and the Americans with Disabilities Act, as a reasonable accommodation.
