La Ley de Licencia Familiar y M\u00e9dica (FMLA) y la Ley de Derechos Familiares de California (CFRA) protegen los derechos de los empleados a tomar licencia por razones familiares y m\u00e9dicas sin poner en riesgo sus empleos. Estas leyes se aplican tanto a empleados a tiempo completo como a tiempo parcial que cumplen con criterios de elegibilidad espec\u00edficos, incluyendo haber trabajado para su empleador durante m\u00e1s de 12 meses y al menos 1,250 horas en el per\u00edodo de 12 meses previo a la licencia.\u00a0<\/p>

Eligible employees are typically entitled to 12 weeks of job-protected leave, which can be used for caring for oneself or a family member, pregnancy disability<\/a><\/strong>, maternity\/paternity leave, military service, or jury duty. While this leave is often unpaid, employees can use accrued paid time off during their leave period.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Employers are required to provide the same or a similar position upon an employee’s return from leave. Violations of these acts can include denying valid leave requests, terminating or demoting employees who take leave, changing an employee’s role after their return, harassment or retaliation<\/strong> for taking leave, and failing to continue health insurance benefits during the leave period.\u00a0<\/p>

Tambi\u00e9n est\u00e1 disponible la licencia intermitente bajo la FMLA, que permite a los empleados tomar su licencia en bloques m\u00e1s peque\u00f1os en lugar de todo de una vez, proporcionando flexibilidad para tratamientos m\u00e9dicos continuos o necesidades de cuidado familiar.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
