[quote=Anonymous]The majority of protections that are federally (and locally) mandated for workers do not apply for small or sole employee businesses for a reason. Small employers cannot afford to sustain the loss of an employee in the way larger employers can. FMLA is a perfect example of a policy that protects the job of an individual who takes parental leave (or disability, etc...) but does not apply to small employers. Someone hiring for a one person position (such as nanny, housekeeper, bookkeeper, whatever...) cannot support an extended absence of an employee in that position. It causes undue hardship. Don't hire her OP and don't feel badly about it, especially given the honest and adult way both you and the applicant are approaching this.[/quote]
