An Overview of Family and Medical Leave Laws in California
Under federal and state laws, some employees in Moreno Valley may be eligible to take job-protected leave to deal with a qualifying family emergency or medical emergency. Here is an overview of the two key family and medical leave laws:
- Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA): The FMLA is a federal law that grants covered employees the right to take a maximum of three months of job-protected leave to deal with a qualifying family or medical emergency. FMLA leave is unpaid. The federal law applies to employers with 50 or more total workers within 75 miles. If you have any questions about the law, Call our Moreno Valley FMLA lawyers for help.
- California Family Rights Act (CFRA): California’s state level family and medical leave protections are more comprehensive in their coverage than their federal counterparts. The CFRA applies to employers in the state with 5 or more total employees. There are some other differences between the laws as well. If you have any questions, call our Moreno Valley CFRA attorneys for immediate assistance.
Both the FMLA and the CFRA allow qualified workers the ability to take job-protected leave. In effect, this means that an employer in Moreno Valley cannot take an adverse action—demotion, suspension, termination, etc.—simply because that worker exercised their legal guaranteed right to take family or medical leave.
