[QUOTE="Redtag, post: 5717867, member: 70933"] That case went though the courts on 1994 FMLA prior to the 2009 and 2013 changes, we now have what's called intermittent FMLA that provides weeks of intermittent leave that the company can not subject to discipline. Since intermittent FMLA is a thing now if a employee has a Dr. Approved condition that requires intermittently missing work there is nothing the company can do about absences that are caused by the condition. It's important for the employee to also know not all FMLA is certified as needing interment absences, the Dr needs to specifically check that box and the range of dates. If permanent then it needs recertification periodically It's not that difficult for a smart person of questionable ethics to get a Dr. To sign off on intermittent FMLA. Then All the individual has to do is make sure the absence is always related to the serious medical condition. POST 2009 Haefling would have intermittent FMLA for his neck and every call in he would have said his neck was the cause and it's FMLA protected and he would still be working here. However, yes for people without intermittent FMLA there is a attendance guideline and for most of us it should not be a problem to make it to work on time and show up daily [/QUOTE]
