The federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) applies to private employers with at least how many employees?
a.15 employees
b.50 employees (within 75 miles)
c.One employee
d.5 employees
Explanation
The federal FMLA covers private employers with 50 or more employees within a 75-mile radius. Because California's CFRA now covers employers with just five employees, many small contractors are subject to CFRA even when FMLA does not apply.
