What's the Law?

Am I at Risk?
Common FMLA violations include:
- Employer failure to recognize qualifying conditions, such as severity of illness
- Disciplining of employees’ with absences that are actually covered by FMLA
- Requiring employees' to give more notice of absence than is required by law
