Who is eligible for California family and medical leave we touched about in our last post?
An employee must have worked for a covered employer for at least 12 months and must have worked for 1,250 hours in the 12 months before the start of the leave.
The employee must also work at a worksite where 50 or more employees are employed by the employer within 75 miles of that worksite.
An employee may take up to 12 workweeks of family/medical leave in a 12-month period. He/she may take all 12 weeks at once, or may take leave in shorter increments of hours, days or weeks.
An employee may take up to 26 weeks per 12-month period to care for an ill or injured service member under the FMLA.
