We comply Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) for certain employees who are full time employees for more than a year if we have more that 50 employees when employees take leave. The FMLA offers certain employees to take an unpaid leave because of family members' or employees' own medical reasons. Family members are employees' spouse, child or parents. Their siblings, grandchild, and in-law aren't included as family members in this Act. Employees are allowed to take leaves for 12 weeks within 12 months because of
· the birth of a new child and need to care of the new baby until the baby turns into one years old
· the placement with the employee of a child for adoption or foster care within one year of placement

    The action taken by Jim was wrongful (or in violation) of the FMLA (Family Leave and Medical Leave Act). This is because the FMLA states that “As long as you are able to return to work before you exhaust your FMLA leave, you must be returned to the same job (or one nearly identical to it).” (FMLA (n.d.), p. 8). It was not adequate (or legal) to just give Gavin a position with the same salary, bonuses, etc.…

    Analysis Of Family Values @ Work

    The act in itself provides for up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave for medical concerns such as: the care of a newborn child, personal illness, and a sick family member. The problem with the FMLA is that many are out of reach from the benefits of the act, because they are not covered by its protections (Bravo 1). Bravo makes the argument that the lack of unpaid leave initially adds to inequality within the United States. Also, arguing that the lack of unpaid leave completely dismantles the idea of family and forces individuals to jeopardize their financial securities for health securities.…
