Under the Family and Medical Leave Act Federal employees are entitled to a total of up to 12 work weeks of unpaid leave during any 12-month period for reasons such as the birth of a child, the placement of a child with the employee after an adoption, the care of a family member with a serious health condition, or the presence of a health condition that does not allow the employee able to perform the functions of his/her job. FMLA requires employers to keep the position and benefits of a job for a person that must take this leave.
If a person is not given the proper leave, or when they return, are not given a position with the same wages and benefits then they have a right to pursue legal action. The Law Office of Vincent R.
