Legal Question in Medical Leave in Texas
FMLA Qualifications
How long do you have to work for a company in order to qualify for FMLA leave? My wife is 3 months pregnant and currently looking for a job after a layoff from her previous job. She is a nurse in the medical field.

Under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act, you have to have worked 12 months and 1250 hours. State law may have different requirements and you should check with an attorney in your state to determine what those requirements may be.
