Re: family medical leave act

If your employer is covered by the FMLA, and if you have worked enough weeks in the preceding year, you are entitled to 12 weeks leave for various reasons, including a serious medical condition. The leave is paid only if the employer has paid sick or other leave available to its employees If an employee has exhausted all paid leave, the FMLA leave is not paid. ***The answers provided here are for educational purposes only and not intended to create an attorney client relationship.
