What is the purpose of the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)?

  1. To guarantee paid time off

  2. To ensure employees can take time off for family and medical reasons

  3. To regulate employer benefits

  4. To create set working hours

The correct answer is: To ensure employees can take time off for family and medical reasons

The federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) serves the important purpose of allowing eligible employees to take unpaid leave for specific family and medical reasons without the fear of losing their job. This law ensures that employees can take time off to care for a newborn, adopt a child, deal with a serious health condition, or care for an immediate family member with a serious health issue. The act provides job protection, allowing employees to return to their same or a comparable position after the leave. While some other options mention workplace benefits or time off, they do not align with the specific intent of the FMLA to focus on job security related to family and medical events, making its purpose distinct in the landscape of employee rights and benefits.
