The Family and Medical Leave Act provides eligible employees with leave for certain medical, family, and military-related reasons.
The Department of Labor regulations cover the details, which can be quite complicated: Who is covered? Who is eligible? For what reasons will leave be provided and for how long? What documentation is required? Is it paid or unpaid? How does it interplay with other laws?
