The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 affects businesses with 15 or more employees.True false question.TrueFalse

The statement is False.

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) of 1993 actually applies to private sector employers who have 50 or more employees for at least 20 workweeks in the current or preceding calendar year. It also applies to public agencies and public and private elementary and secondary schools, regardless of their number of employees.

This act allows eligible employees to take unpaid, job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons while ensuring that their group health insurance coverage is maintained during the leave. It's essential to understand that the provisions in the law serve to balance the demands of the workplace with the needs of families, promoting awareness and support for health and family issues within the workforce.
