Legal Question in Medical Leave in California

Warnings on Family Medical Leave Act.

I am a union rep, and several employees have come to me about written warnings with a promise of being terminated, secondary to their absence from work. One of the employees has had several operations for infertility related problems and had to take off time to recuperate. Is her condition covered by the family leave law.

Infertility leave

If her physician releases her from work and the FMLA is otherwise satisfied, yes, generally. I am not licensed in your state. So, I can't advise you on any state claims you may have. Contact a lawyer immediately. If you have trouble finding one, just yell. Of course, in order to receive legal advice you can use, you should have a personal interview with a lawyer. The comments I have made are general and may or may not apply to your situation.
