[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 801207, member: 18044"] Be sure to file your grievances within the required time period. Cite Articles 36 and 37 for discrimination and harrassment. Cite your Supplement's Sick Day Article, and your Supplement's Discharge Article for wrongful tremination. And cite Article 16, Section 6 for violating your contractual right to use FMLA time to attend to your very pregnant wife. Your state may have an FMLA as well. Learn all about your FMLA rights here . . . [URL]http://www.dol.gov/whd/fmla/[/URL] Also see UPS' FMLA rules at . . . [URL]http://www.upsers.com[/URL] Contact the nurse or H.R. person at UPS that deals with FMLA cases. They will know and respect your legal rights. Supervisors usually don't know, or don't care, or think you don't know of FMLA. You do not need a Doctor's note to be out one day. Besides no Doctor can write [U]you[/U] a note since you are not his patient, your wife is!!! He may not have first-hand knowledge that you drove your wife to and from his office. However, under FMLA rules, UPS can demand that you prove your trip to the Doctor's office was legitimate. So when they realize they [U]violated[/U] [U]federal[/U] [U]law[/U], and that FMLA is in play, they may then demand proof by giving you papers to fill out. (I doubt your Supes were even aware of FMLA's aplicability in this case. They can be as hostile and clueless on-duty as some Browncafe posters can be off-duty. So when your Supes asked for a Doctor's note, it was based on the [U]false[/U] notion that you needed a note to use one contractual Sick Day.) If your BA doesn't get your job back and give UPS a spanking, the Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division surely will. [/QUOTE]
