Answer:

The law/regulation which applies to the benefits the company may utilize is:

a. Family Medical Leave Act

Explanation:

The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, gives employees the opportunity to take leave from their work for specific family and medical reasons without affecting their normal annual leave.  Unlike the other laws mentioned, which attempt to prohibit discrimination against persons with disabilities, (Americans with Disabilities Act 1990), against Pregnancy (Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978), and against age (Age Discrimination in Employment Act 1967), the Family and Medical Leave Act provides benefits to employees.
