What this topic is really about
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) guarantees eligible employees up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave per year for specified family and medical reasons. While 26 weeks is available under FMLA, this extended duration is specifically reserved for military caregiver leave rather than standard medical needs.
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is the federal agency specifically tasked with administering union certification elections and investigating unfair labor practices under the NLRA. In contrast, the Department of Labor (DOL) oversees broader labor standards and welfare laws, rather than conducting union votes.
