I have been employed for the past year with my company and am in good standing. I have a daughter who is in a rehab facility and will be there until June. Her visitation day is Sunday from noon until five. I am required to work from noon until six on Sundays. Can I use the Family Leave Act when I request leaving by 3:30 (a half hour drive time) to have an hour visit with her every other week? They have been reluctant to let me off to see her.

Pregnancy at work

I have given my employer three notices from my doctor requiring that I be placed on light duty. My employers response has been that they do not have any light duty available at this time, and that they are too short handed to give me any help and that if I have to work all day at a slower pace to get my job done then thats what I will have to do to keep my job. Some days more often than not I am lifting 80 pounds or more over and over for longer than 9 hours a day putting me and my unborn child at risk for complications. Is my employer allowed to treat me like this, dont they have to peovide me with light duty? Anytime I complain or ask for help they threaten my job. what can I do about this?

Fmla

Three days after reporting off work due to back pain, my employer sent a certified letter containing application and medical certification forms for FMLA. I called HR and was told I MUST file for FMLA even if I return to work in a few days. If I refuse to fill out the forms, the company Medical Officer will decide if my time off qualifies as FMLA. My question: Can my employer force me to apply for FMLA ?

FMLA denial/HR called my doctor

Is it legal for someone from HR and my supervisor to contact my doctor to find out if I forged the FMLA paperwork? I'm furious (and humiliated) with my company for calling to ask such a rediculous question especially when I have never given them any reason to question my honesty. When my doctor advised me they had called to ask this, I was mortified. She said she has never had a company do this and told me I should find a new job, that the people I work for are idiots.

FMLA certifcations

Is it legal for an employer to request medical certification for maternity leave? Is it legal to require documentation to verify adoption or foster placement?
