According to the 2008 National Study of Employers, 11% of employers with 100 or more employees offered fewer than 12 weeks as the maximum job-guaranteed leave for employees to care for seriously ill family members, while 76% offered 12 weeks, and 13% offered more than 12 weeks. The average was 13.4%. These rates are not significantly different from those reported in 1998. (Table 6, p. 18)

The 2008 National Study of Employers (NSE) sample includes 1,100 employers with 50 or more employees--77 percent are for profit employers and 23 percent are nonprofit organizations; 40 percent operate at only one location, while 60 percent have operations at more than one location. Interviews were conducted on behalf of Families and Work Institute by Harris Interactive, Inc. This is the third NSE; previous studies were conducted in 1998 and 2005.
