What is Military Qualifying Exigency Leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)?

Military Qualifying Exigency Leave allows an eligible employee to take FMLA leave when their spouse, child, or parent is on—or has been notified of—covered active duty or a call to active duty in support of a contingency operation.
Covered active duty means deployment to a foreign country under federal military orders.
