[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My understanding is that FMLA leave is not *in addition* to sick leave. You are entitled to up to 12 weeks of being away from your job (16 in DC) for your illness/family member's illness, whether you use PAID time off to cover any of that time is up to you. So it doesn't really matter if you call it "FMLA", your employer knows you can be absent up to x weeks and they have to hold your job open for you. [/quote] It is in addition to if you work for the federal government. Questions for OP: -do you work for the federal govt? -how much AL do you have accrued? -can you flex hours as PPs suggested? -will your agency and manager approve discretionary LWOP (this avoids invoking FMLA)? If so, how many hours? -can you go part-time when you come back?[/quote]
