How many weeks can an employee take off under the Family Medical Leave Act?

6 weeks
8 weeks
12 weeks
16 weeks

The correct answer is: 12 weeks

Under the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA), an eligible employee is entitled to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave during a 12-month period for specific family and medical reasons. This time can be used for various purposes, including the birth of a child, the adoption of a child, caring for a family member with a serious health condition, or the employee's own serious health condition. The law ensures that employees can take this time off without the fear of losing their job and allows them to maintain their health insurance benefits during the leave. This structure is designed to provide sufficient time for employees to manage significant life events and health issues while protecting their employment rights. While some states or employers may offer more generous leave policies, the FMLA establishes the baseline of 12 weeks, which is a critical understanding for contractors and HR professionals in navigating employee rights and benefits.
