Answer 1

Answer:

A) ​continue it.

Explanation:

The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 requires businesses with more than 50 employees to allow employees to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave per year in order to take care of a newborn child, or adopt a child, or take care of the spouse or child that suffers from a serious health condition, or if the employee suffers from a serious health condition. If the family member belongs to the military is involved, then the leave time extends to 26 weeks per year.
