Employees may apply for LWOP for medical or personal reasons, such as to provide care for a family member, or to accompany a government-employed spouse to a new duty location. Under the provisions of the Family Medical Leave Act, in some situations, an employee may be granted up to 12 weeks of LWOP in any 12-month period for care of a family member.
