Los Angeles, California, Pregnancy Rights Employment Law Attorneys

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) entitles employees who have been with their current employer at least one year, up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave per year for family care and medical leave. Additionally, it requires that other benefits and conditions be maintained throughout the course of the leave. This includes leave for the birth of a child, the placement of an adopted child with the employee, the serious health condition of a child, spouse, or the employee.
