What conditions qualify for FMLA leave?
To qualify for an FMLA leave, you need to have either a serious medical condition, pregnancy, or taking care of another family member who has a serious medical condition. Those three things will usually qualify you for an FMLA leave. In addition, your employer needs to be FMLA eligible.
That means they need to be a certain size and you need to have been working for them for a certain length of time. If those two conditions are met, the employer has to give you an FMLA leave for that serious medical condition, pregnancy, or taking care of a family member.
If they don't, talk to an attorney who will help you get the rights you deserve.
