I have been terminated today . after I went through a complete hip replacement. My Fmla ran out on the 25th . of November. But my doctors appointment to get released from his care is on December 4th. I was terminated on Friday November 30th
Unfortunately, your employer is legally entitled to terminate you if you fail to return to work when your FMLA expires.
HOWEVER, it is POSSIBLE that you may have a claim under the Americans With Disabilities Act, if a few days of additional leave might be considered a "reasonable accommodation" for a disability.
