FMLA and teachers
Just wondering if anyone knows.....Can an employer force an employee to take the 12 weeks of FMLA even if they only requested to take 10 weeks?
TIA

Re: FMLA and teachers
no..your entitled to 12 weeks..
whether you want to take it all at once or within 1 year of your baby it is your choice.....
If you want to go back after 10 weeks they cant tell you not to return...

Re: FMLA and teachers
are you tenured? If you are not, they may have something up their sleeves. I would talk about it with your union rep

No they CAN NOT force you to take the 12 weeks.
I also am taking the 12 weeks and returning in November.
I would LOVE to stay longer but after the 12 weerks I have to pay cobra payments of $1,127.00 for medical insurance

Re: FMLA and teachers
I'm due in December and can't go without being paid. I have about 10 weeks of time that will be paid so thats all I want to take.
The lady in personnel said that the Asst. Superintendent can force me to take the full 12 even though the last 2 would be unpaid. I explained nicely that I didnt understand how that could be as she doesnt know my personnel/financial status.
They're driving me nuts.
