Legal Question in Medical Leave in Georgia

Your employer can require you to prepare lesson plans for your maternity leave before you go out on leave. Once your leave begins, however, assuming you have given sufficient notice of the need for leave and your employer has approved the leave, your employer cannot interfere with your right to leave - including by requiring you to work from home. In addition, you cannot be required to work without pay. Requiring you to do so would likely violate federal or state wage/hour laws.
