Legal Question in Medical Leave in Maryland

Family Medical Leave Act

Can I be forced to work a morning shift, which will cut my shift differential pay as well as cause a hardship with my child as I am a single mother and took this shift because I had no other means. I was told by my department manager that due to the fact that I have an FMLA case, that they were moving me to an earlier shift and there is basically nothing that I can do. I never applied for a day shift I was originayly hired onto the day shift. My case is intermittent and it was just opened on August 16th. I do plan to have near future surgery but that shouldn't be a problem either

Many issues appear in your question. Most notable is that you plan to have surgery. FMLA protects the individual as it does the family. Contact an attorney.
