The following is a list of your rights and benefits as an eligible FMLA employee:

• 12 weeks of unpaid FMLA leave in a 12-month period.
• continuation of group health benefits during FMLA leave.
• restoration to the same or an equivalent job upon return to work.
• retention of accrued benefits.
• protection from discrimination as a result of taking FMLA leave.

Note: An employer may not take any adverse action against an employee for the taking FMLA leave; however, any personnel action/decision that would have happened if the employee had continued in a work status may happen while the employee is on FMLA leave.

Once you have reviewed your rights and benefits, we encourage you to review how to File a Complaint.
