FMLA is a federal law providing for an unpaid period of protected absence of up to 12 weeks, or up to 26 weeks for Military Caregiver Leave, in a twelve-month period for a qualifying event (see FMLA Fact Sheet for more qualifications).
Under the FMLA, eligible employees can take up to 12 workweeks of leave per 12-month periods without losing their job or health insurance. The guaranteed leave can be unpaid, and any paid leave can run concurrent to the FMLA leave at the employer's discretion.
The FMLA only requires unpaid leave. However, the law permits an employee to elect, or the employer to require the employee, to use accrued paid vacation leave, paid sick or family leave for some or all of the FMLA leave period.
With the enactment of the law, Maryland becomes the latest state to establish paid family and medical leave for employees. The Act creates a family and medical leave fund (the Fund) which provides temporary paid leave benefits to covered employees and participating self-employed individuals.
FMLA leave is unpaid, but employees may be allowed (or required) to use their accrued paid leave during FMLA leave.
