The Employee's Guide to the Family and Medical Leave Act

The FMLA entitles eligible employees of covered employers to take job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons with continuation of group health insurance coverage under the same terms and conditions as if the employee had not taken leave.

• Twelve work weeks of leave in a calendar year for:

  • Birth/Adoption/Pre-Adoptive Foster Care

  • Foster Placement

  • Employee’s Own Serious Health Condition (may require medical certification)

  • To Care for Family Member (including domestic partner or domestic partner’s parent), Military Service member, or Veteran with a Serious Health Condition* (may require medical certification)
