Daily HR Tip #11: Understand the Basics of FMLA The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides eligible employees with up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave within a 12-month period for specific family and medical reasons. These reasons include the birth or adoption of a child, caring for a spouse, child, or parent with a serious health condition, or the employee's own serious health condition. It's crucial that HR professionals understand these provisions and communicate them clearly to ensure compliance and support employees during these critical times. #HRTips #FMLA #EmployeeRights

The correct answer is A) 12 weeks. Under FMLA, when two spouses work for the same employer, their combined leave is capped at 12 weeks for the birth or adoption of a child or to care for a parent with a serious health condition. For their own serious health conditions or to care for a sick child, each spouse retains their full 12-week entitlement individually. Happy New Year! 🎉 May this year bring you closer to achieving your HR certification and professional goals! Let’s make it a year of growth and success together. #HRPractice #FMLA #ComplianceMatters #ProfessionalGrowth #NewYearNewGoals #DistinctiveHR
