By: Alan E. Seneczko, Esq. and Peter E. Hansen, Esq. One of the biggest, and most problematic differences between the Wisconsin Family Medical Leave Act and the Federal FMLA is the right to substitute paid leave for unpaid leave under the FMLA. Under Federal law, an employee can only substitute paid leave if it is otherwise applicable.
The federal FMLA sets the minimum standard â 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected family and medical leave. If your state has a more generous law than the FMLA, then you can take advantage of the more generous provisions.As of June 2014, 20 states provide some type of leave that is more generous than the FMLA.
