The U.S. Department of Labor released an online tool, the Medical and Disability Related Leave Advisor, that helps employers understand their responsibilities to provide medical and disability leave to their employees. The interactive tool allows employers to enter information such as size of workforce, type of business, the veteran status of the individual, and whether financial assistance is available. 

Using the data provided, the tool identifies the federal employment laws that apply to the employer/employee. It identifies the Americans with Disabilities Act, Family and Medical Leave Act, and the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act. 

The tool may be a useful resource for employers to get a basic understanding of federal laws impacting an employee’s leave. It can be accessed here
