[quote=Anonymous]My spouse's employer offers up to 16 weeks unpaid leave (this is under DCFMLA although they don't clearly state this) but recently informed him he cannot use any of his unused sick time to cover getting paid while he is on leave to care for me and our newborn. They said sick leave can only be used for his personal illness. He will also use any vacation time he has available but we counted on using his considerable sick leave to cover what was left of the 16 weeks. Doesn't DCFMLA allow the employee the choice of using vacation, sick, and compensatory leave? Can an employer forbid a father from using his earned sick time to cover his unpaid leave while on DCFMLA if the reason for the leave is to take care of his newborn and spouse? Please help.[/quote]
