Human Growth and Development / Unit 14   HGD 1983 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Caregiver Burden and Leave

Captions available

The idea

The Family and Medical Leave Act provides eligible workers up to twelve weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave a year for family and medical reasons.

In practice

A son taking unpaid leave to care for his father after surgery, his job held for his return.

Where people slip

The leave is unpaid; the course describes the law and takes no position on it.
