Employer Information

FMLA applies to private-sector employers with 50 or more employees within a 75-mile radius, as well as all public agencies and schools regardless of size.

If known, this is the number used for coverage. Otherwise, use the worksite count above.

Employee Information

An employee must have worked for the employer for at least 12 months and have at least 1,250 hours of service in the 12 months before leave begins.

The 12 months do not need to be consecutive.

Approximately 24 hours/week for 52 weeks = 1,250 hours.
