Are military exigency and military caregiver leaves considered additional leave entitlements beyond the FMLA?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only for military members

  4. Only for caregivers

The correct answer is: No

The FMLA (Family and Medical Leave Act) already recognizes military exigency and military caregiver leaves as specific categories of leave that fall under its broader provisions. While they provide protections for employees who need to take time off for military-related reasons, they do not constitute entirely separate entitlements. Instead, these types of leave are integrated into the existing framework of the FMLA, which grants eligible employees up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave within a 12-month period for various qualifying reasons, including military-related situations. By characterizing military exigency and military caregiver leaves as extensions or specific applications of the FMLA, it clarifies that they are not additional leave entitlements but rather particular circumstances covered under the FMLA umbrella. Therefore, asserting that they are not additional entitlements beyond what the FMLA already provides reflects an understanding of how the Act accommodates military service-related leave requests.:
