Re: Family leave

If your CA employer has at least 50 employees, and you are employed for at least 12 months, have at least 1,250 hours worked in the 12 months prior to the leave, then you would be eligible for 12 weeks of unpaid FMLA/CFRA medical leave, continuation of group health benefits, restoration to the same or an equivalent job upon return to work, with accrued benefits.

Now, if they violate those rules, contact me for the legal help you'll need.
