[quote=Anonymous]Don't know where you work, but at my agency - there's a lot of guidance on legit use of sick leave. If you're put on bedrest, you can utilize your sick leave for that time until you run out and you don't necessarily have to invoke FMLA to do that (that doesn't give you the same job protection as FMLA, but it does keep you active on the pay roll and acknowledges your short-term illness, so maybe ADA comes into play? I don't know really). When your sick leave runs out, then you can invoke FMLA with unpaid leave and you only get 12 weeks of that. But be sure you fill out whatever paperwork is required by your employer for FMLA - taking LWOP for pregnancy or the birth of a child doesn't automatically mean you've invoked FMLA at my agency. You have to fill out a form first, specifying that you're invoking FMLA, not just utilizing leave. [/quote]
