Why Get FMLA Leave in Texas?
You can take up to 12 weeks of job-protected leave for your own health condition or to care for a family member.
Your job (or an equivalent role) is protected when you return. Your employer must maintain your health insurance while you're on FMLA leave.
Texas does not provide a state-run paid leave program, so FMLA is the primary medical leave protection for Texas workers.

How Do You Qualify for FMLA in Texas?
Texas does not expand federal FMLA. The standard federal rules apply in Texas. You may qualify in Texas if:
- Your employer meets the 50+ employee rule
- You've worked long enough + enough hours
- You have a medical or family-related reason that qualifies under federal law
Our doctors help determine whether your situation meets FMLA certification standards.
