FMLA can be very useful, but there are two major caveats for the employee. First, you are not paid while you are gone, you are simply guaranteed to be allowed to come back when you are done caring for your relative. Second, you are not guaranteed to be given your same job when you come back. I think it has to be at comparable pay, but they can put you in a different department or position at their discretion.
