The FMLA grants employees up to 26 weeks of unpaid leave to care for a family member in the military who has incurred a serious illness or injury, and allows employees to take their current 12-week FMLA leave entitlement "for any qualifying exigency" arising out of the fact that a family member is on or has been notified that he/she is being called to active duty in support of a contingency operation. The Department of Labor has the responsibility of issuing regulations related to these changes, including defining "any qualifying exigency."
