[QUOTE="cachsux, post: 842768, member: 5529"] I have yet to see a doctor have the Nostradamus like skills to be able to predict how many days a person might need. Like finger prints no two people are alike and therefore any mention of "affected days per month" would only be a guesstimate based on an average of similarly affected people. Therefore UPS has no right to hold the employee to said guesstimate. If the person needs another day more UPS is obliged,without discipline, to provide it. I have seen Mgmt step over the line on what they think is their power in the matter and they are quite surprised what a properly filed compliant with the DOL can do. Realize this. A person can file a complaint with UPS HR, the union, the DOL, and privately with an attorney. The latter can be directed both at UPS as well as the management individual themself. It has happened at our building and if valid UPS does not pay the mgmt persons legal fees. Your best bet littlelady is to make sure any possible time periods that might cause a misunderstanding is left off your forms or have the Dr make a note that any such is only an estimate. [/QUOTE]
