[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 506800, member: 927"] Mechanic: I am way out of my league on this, but I strongly suggest you consult help outside of UPS and the union. For my own curiousity, I read up on Intermittent FMLA and to my very untrained eye, you seem to be on the fringe of the law. Most of what I read talked about using this portion of FMLA for scheduled treatments. It also implied that it was for reoccurance of the same illness. It appears that there are many people that abused this section of the law (I am in no way suggesting that you are). There are lots of legal opinions on how employers can "better manage" intermittend leave and what "reasonable" means. I read where the law places the burdon on the employee to be proactive in working out the situation with the employer. I wish the best for you and your family. Maybe a $50 consultation with an attorney to get your rights understood may save frustration later? At a minimum, spend a few hours researching the law on the web. It doesn't seem straightforward to me. P-Man [/QUOTE]
