Fmla Leave For Grandparents

Summary

FMLA generally allows up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave for specific family and medical reasons, but it does not typically cover leave to care for a grandparent unless they stood in loco parentis. In Illinois, there are no state-specific laws extending beyond FMLA for grandparents. Check your employers leave policy or employee handbook for compassionate leave options. Speak with your HR department for clarity and possible flexibility.
