Both the federal Family and Medical Leave Act and the New Jersey Family Leave Act allow employees to take unpaid time off from work for the birth or adoption of a child or to take care of a seriously ill relative. The federal law also provides for unpaid medical leave for employees who have serious health conditions that prevent them from performing their jobs temporarily. Your employer cannot retaliate against you for seeking or taking such family or medical leave.
