How is leave designated if it qualifies as both military caregiver leave and leave to care for a family member with a serious health condition?
For military caregiver leave that also qualifies as leave taken to care for a family member with a serious health condition, the regulations provide that an employer must designate the leave as military caregiver leave first. The USDOL believes that applying military caregiver leave first will help to alleviate some of the administrative issues caused by the running of the separate “single 12-month period” for military caregiver leave.
