I'm not an expert on the subject.
I was more referring to issues prior to FMLA eligibility.
Had an employee that was bedridden at about 4 months.
And that was 10 years ago.
Come on Dave.
Delete that.

A 17 year employee, would have options for a life altering event.

It shouldn't matter how many hours he puts in a week. He's still been with the company for 17 years.

That guy came off as a d-bag with his talk about deportation and "go back where you came from." That being said, when I worked for Coca Cola we saw that any time a big sale would hit. Convenience store owners would haul out carts and carts of 12 packs. Local grocery stores started putting limits on what a customer could buy.

Good point, the requisite number of hours being worked completely slipped my mind.
Another fact I had forgotten.
It's not bad enough the person has cancer but also has to go through all this misery to try and keep a job to make ends meet.

We have FT drivers with 25 years who may be forced to keep working due to pension cuts.

Thanks to brown cafe, i have some places to direct him, that may possibly be able to give him some advice.
He knows nothing of the "system". It was like steering a mack truck with no power to get him to apply for help with food. Which he certainly is entitled to.
Would be a real good segment on the news. Hohoho, merry Christmas from UPS. You are fired for getting cancer.
Its not like hes never going to be able to come back. 6 more months. And they could make no accommodation.
Tell me again how ups cares for its people.

UPS sucks. Get rid of the sick, the old, the slower. Get the young, the quick, and the meek.

That’s Craptacular
He needs to call HRSC and apply for FMLA.
PT sups are guaranteed (as I understand it) 27 hours a week...which would approx. equal 1400 hours a year. Given that...he would qualify for 12 weeks of FMLA, instead of 6. If you sign up for "intermittent" FMLA, you can take single days off, blocks of days or single weeks...but he would not have to take all 12 weeks (or 6 weeks if that's all he qualifies for) in one shot if he didn't want to. He can spread it out between now and the end of the year, so days he feels up to it he can work, and days he needs off, he can take an FMLA day.
He can reapply in December for FMLA for next year.
