FMLA/Workers' Compensation

jds · November 2003

Does time spent on Workers' Compensation count under the FMLA eligibility requirement of having worked 1,250 hours the previous 12 months?

"hours worked" under FMLA has the same meaning as "hours worked" under the Fair Labor Standards Act, i.e., time actually worked. Exception is if the employee is called to active duty in the U.S. Military (still a debatable position) or if you treat other leaves of absence as time worked.
