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.
Family Leave: The federal Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave during a 12 month period to care for a newborn, adopted or foster child, or to care for a family member, or to attend to the employeeâs own serious medical health condition. The law applies to private employers with 50 or more employees.
