Military Caregiver FMLA Leave Modified
by Darrell R. VanDeusen

When the President signs the National Defense Authorization Act of 2010 (NADA) on October 28, 2009, there will be changes made to the military caregiver requirements of the Family and Medical Leave Act. The amendments implement bills pending in both houses (H.R. 3403, S. 1543).

The NADA directs the DOL and OPM to work with the Secretaries of Defense and the Veterans Administration in crafting regulations to implement the amendments. It is unclear whether the changes will be effective upon signing or when regulations are issued.

Section 565 of the NDAA will change the military caregiver provisions of the FMLA in a number of ways:

Employers should review and revise their FMLA policies to reflect these changes.
