Hello,
So for 2 to 3 years I have been having to use FMLA every week to every other week. My back has gotta so bad I can barely stand most days more or less make it to work. My doctor has now put me on a 30 hr a week restriction, so 6 hour days or ability to work from home. Anyways, my employer allowed the 30 hr schedule as a "reasonable accommodation" and denied working from home. The problem is, they also told me now that if I show a "pattern" of working under 30 hours a week, they would take away my benifits. This would be done by making me part time. So now I am terrified to take my FMLA time for days, and like today I have no choice but to take a day of FMLA. What can I do here? I'm learning now that there's no way possible I will be able to keep over 30 hours. I seriously feel threatened by my employer and they are making it impossible for me to take FMLA now.
