Substituted Paid Sick Leave

MrCreosote

For those of you who 1) Have sick leave separate from vacation leave and allowed only for employee's own use, and 2) require FMLA users to substitute paid leave; do you allow sick leave to be applied to the full twelve months, even though some of that time would be used for care of the child rather than the employee's own medical condition? I imagine it might be impossible to draw the line between the two, but does anyone try?

FMLA regs permit company paid leave to run concurrent with the 12 weeks of leave mandated under the Act.

Most find this to be the easiest way to manage FMLA leave for any reason.
