Answer:

The Family and Medical Leave Act

Explanation:

The family and medical leave act grants eligible employees of covered companies the right to unpaid and job-protected leave for medical reasons. The law requires qualifying employers to allow eligible employees to take unpaid leave to attend to serious family health matters. This law permits eligible or qualifying employees to take up to 12 weeks leave for reasons such as childbirth and a serious personal or family sickness.
