[QUOTE="cachsux, post: 1179107, member: 5529"] If you have an HR person try them or any of the options mentioned. As Toonces mentioned apply for Intermittent. It will allow you to take ANY increment of time you need down to minutes. If you take a day or any amount of time that reduces your work day to less than 8 hours ( half day,etc) the FMLA time used comes out of your "bank" of hours. If you work 8 (the contracted guarantee) or more and then leave then the amount of FMLA time used does NOT come out of your "bank". You are allowed to save a week of vaca if YOU choose. Usually it's the option week,at least here, but can be any. Here our mgmt team pays you for a FMLA day out of available vacation time but we are still allowed to take the day unpaid when it comes if we choose. Their theory is that the vaca was earned from the previous years work hours and under they law cannot be taken from the driver. If we choose we can work that day also. If you can try and give mgmt a heads up that you are taking some FMLA time so they can plan around you. It's a courtesy on your part as it is not required under the law. If circumstances come up and you have to leave then you have to leave. Tell them FMLA and that's it. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
