Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Department of Labor changed the FMLA in 2010 to broaden the definition of who could be considered a son or daughter to include same-sex families with children. This was a significant change that expanded coverage under the law. Options A and B are not accurate, as the definition of son and daughter was clarified to include both biological and legal relationships. Option D is also incorrect, as the FMLA applies to eligible employees in both the private and public sectors, not just federal government employees with management positions.
