Question: 1 / 400

True or False: An employee eligible for FMLA may take leave if the deployment is for training exercises, regardless of location.

True

False

The correct response is based on the specific provisions of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). Under FMLA, an employee is entitled to take leave for specific qualifying reasons, one of which pertains to military family leave related to a family member's active duty or call to active duty in the Armed Forces. However, this entitlement generally does not extend to situations such as training exercises, as these are not classified under the same circumstances that allow for FMLA leave.

The FMLA allows for leave related primarily to a family member being on active duty or having been notified of an impending call to active duty, rather than for routine training exercises. Additionally, the designation of long-term leave or the nature of the training does not modify the FMLA's stipulations regarding eligibility for leave. Therefore, since training exercises do not meet the criteria that FMLA sets forth for qualifying leave, this makes the statement false.
