The Family Medical Leave Act requires employers with 50 or more employees to grant at least 12 weeks of unpaid leave to eligible employees after the birth of a child, the arrival of an adopted child, to care for a sick relative, when the employee is ill, or to deal with any necessities that may occur when a spouse, child, or parent is on active military duty.
For an employee to be entitled to these benefits, the employee must have worked for the employer for at least a year and must have worked a minimum of 1,250 hours within that year to request for leave. Additionally, the employee must provide a qualifying reason for leave.
If you are a qualified employee and your employer denied your request for leave, refused to reestablish your employment after your leave, somehow interfered with your leave request, or has resulted in retaliation for your requested leave, then it is essential to contact a FMLA lawyer in Los Angeles as soon as possible.
