Eligibility Profiles for FMLA Benefits
You create eligibility profiles to define criteria that different business processes use to determine whether an employee qualifies for a benefits offering.
For example, use an eligibility profile to determine whether an employee is eligible for Federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) protection. The business process of which employees are eligible for FMLA protection uses an eligibility profile of Employee Person Types.

The Eligibility Profiles task organizes eligibility profile criteria into these categories.
