Megan has worked for Acme plumbing for 10 years as the bookkeeper, and has never missed a day's work. The small business - with only 24 employees - was like a family, and yet she really wanted a family of her own. She wanted to have children but was worried about what would happen to her financially without a paycheck and in terms of her job if she took time off to have a baby. When she discovered that she was pregnant, she learned about the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) which would guarantee covered workers up to 12 weeks of leave during any twelve month period. Will this resolve her worries about taking time off to have a baby? A. No, FMLA won't help Megan, because her employer is not subject to FMLA. B. No, FLMA won't help Megan, because it doesn't provide paid leave - just the right to take unpaid time off. C. No, Megan won't be helped by FMLA because her employer is not covered, and FMLA doesn't provide paid leave either. Both A and B above are true D. Yes, because Megan will receive guaranteed paid time off up to 12 weeks.
