What does rolling year mean for Medical leave of absence?

Rolling year for medical leave of absences refers to the specific 12-month time frame used to calculate the amount of time an employee has taken off for FMLA-qualifying reasons. The rolling year is constantly rolling forward, meaning that the employer tracks the employee's medical leave taken within the most recent 12-month period. It helps ensure accuracy and fairness in calculating the available medical leave entitlement for employees.
