FMLA and Workers Compensation

madison31401

Have an issue with an employee in the State of South Carolina who thinks
employer can not designate FML to run concurrent with Workers's Comp.
What I've read over the years sure indicates we the employer can. Is there
something special about the state of South Carolina that exempts this under
State FMLA or State Worker's Comp Law?????Need an answer really quick if anyone can help!!!!!

The federal statute certainly grants the employer the right to designate W/C time away from work as FML. Surely SC has a W/C office you could call. Most attorneys will answer a question like this without charging an arm/leg!
