...LIT 1-Task 2 Situation A Employee A has taken a leave for 11 weeks and is now returning. Under The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), our employee is eligible to return to his position, schedule and pay grade. According to your memo, he is asking for compensation for his time while on leave to be with his spouse who delivered twins. Employee A’s leave was unpaid. Under the Act, all eligible employees are entitled to 12 weeks of unpaid leave. This is including but not limited to, the bonding time that our employee took. It would have been wise for his previous manager to review his rights and responsibilities under FMLA and provisions regarding pay prior to going out on leave. That said, the information regarding this policy would have been covered in his orientation at the time he started his tenure here. Additionally, the information pertinent to FMLA and pay is contained in or employee handbook which is available online and every employee has a hard copy for review at their convenience Employee A does have some options available to him. If he has unused, accrued PTO, vacation time, or paid sick time, we can look to applying that to his leave time. It may not cover the entire time he was out, but it may help his burden as he will be obligated to pay the employee health benefits he was covered with while out on leave. Also if the employee had any supplemental insurance he may want to speak with his carrier to find out if he is eligible for any awards form it...

...family responsibilities are essential for an employee's job success in the ever changing business world of today. Not knowing the unknown is where the ultimate preparation rest for employees as they implement measures in their daily lives to accommodate and handle such adversity that they may face to balance their time and maintain their employment. The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) was established in 1963 by congress to provide certain employees with up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave per year and requires that their group health benefits be maintained during the leave (U.S. Department of Labor). The U.S. Department of Labor (n,d.) stated, "FMLA is designed to help employees balance their work and family responsibilities by allowing them to take reasonable unpaid leave for certain family and medical reasons and it also seeks to accommodate the legitimate interests of employers and promote equal employment opportunity for men and women." This paper will explain if it matters that a parent literally had nothing to do with a biological child in order for the child to take advantage of the FMLA to care for that parent. Next, we look at a case to explain whether the size of the business can have any effect on whether Tony is eligible for family leave under the FMLA and whether Herman can or cannot imply that if Tony takes a leave of absence under the FMLA, he may not have a job when he returns. Last,...

...Case Study – Paid Time Off Policies B6032 Human Resource Management & Talent Development Courtez Kirkwood Argosy University Paid time off is awarded to those that meet the selected criteria. Usually this is by being employed, attendance at work and working over time. Merging two companies with two different PTO policies is a difficult task as ultimately; there must be one newly created policy for all employees to follow. In addition, HR will need to further research each company for information to determine the newly formed paid time off policy once the companies have merged. Length of Employment * Usually it is important to know how long an employee has been with the company. Paid time off is accumulated over time and the length of an employee at a company can really alter their paid time off. This information is important to make sure paid time off is given fairly but also to protect the company from people who join the company just to receive paid time off. Attendance * Employees work different hours throughout the day, week, month and year. Some employees are required to work 40 hours a week; some are required to work more or less. This information is needed to help define the paid time off policy and help narrow down the qualifications Employee type * In most companies there are full time employees whom are entitled to all benefits and incentives. There are also outsourced and contractor employees within a company. The different types of employees...

...and Medical Leave Act of 1993, states that all companies with 50 or more employees must offer an unpaid leave of absence to employees to take care of the birth or adoption of a child, personal, or family illness. An employee must have a minimum of 12 months of continuous employment or at least 1,250 hours on the job. Under the act, an employee may take up to 12 weeks off on an unpaid leave. In accordance to the act, the employee will be allowed to return to their previous job, at their previous rate. If for some reason their job was occupied, we must provide the employee with a different position at the same pay rate as their previous job. Our company currently employees over 75 workers; therefore, we must comply with act. We must also comply with The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 because the Employee A has been with the company for more than 12 months. The fact that his wife gave birth prematurely has no effect on the employee’s request. The request for Employee A to return to their previous job with their previous pay rate has been rightfully granted, because the employee meets the requirements stated in The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993. If the position has been occupied, then we must give the employee a different position with the same pay rate. In regards, to Employee A’s request for the pay that was withheld from his leave of absence, the manager did the correct thing by denying the request of pay for the withheld salary. The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993...

...childcare, just to name a few. A legal, fair, and ethical approach to these matters is how these issues are handled. If these matters are not handled with caution and within the legal limitations, law suits are filed and companies face serious legal challenges. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is the legal voice for those individuals whom believe they have been discriminated. Laws were designed to protect employees from discrimination and to protect the jobs of employees who need to take time off work to take care of ill family members. The Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is designed to grant eligible employees up to 12 weeks of time off work during any 12-month period. As with anything, there are individuals who try to take advantage of this policy; therefore, employers have developed an internal “personal time off work” policy for protection. Most companies have personal leave to include limited vacation and sick days (accrued and earned), limitation on sick days taken per year and during probationary period, attendance policy, tardy policy, and separate accrual for personal days. These policies were designed to allow...

...1. Explain if it matters that a parent literally had nothing to do with a biological child in order for the child to take advantage of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) to care for that parent. The employees can reasonably expect privacy in the workplace in places like restrooms, parking lots, lounges and in the kitchen area. But generally speaking it is really difficult these days to have complete privacy. 2- Explain whether the size of the business can have any effect on whether Tony is eligible for family leave under the FMLA. It makes a difference if employee is in an open area or in an enclosed office and courts have so held. See, for example, United States v. Lefkowitz, 464 F.Supp. 227 (C.D.Cal. 1979), aff'd, 618 F.2d 1313 (9th Cir. 1980) “Outside his or her own workspace, a corporate officer or employee has a reasonable expectation of privacy to challenge a search if he or she has a "possessory or proprietary interest" in the area searched and there is a connection between this area and his or her own workspace”. Both open area work spaces and enclosed private offices have their own benefits. Open space allows for better communication and exchange for information among co-workers. It is much easier to ask each other questions in an open environment. While on the other hand 90 percent of the participants reported that privacy is the number one benefit of a closed space environment. Employees feel more secure and reduced noise (O’Neill, 2008). After the introduction...

...of twins. Based on these circumstances, the employee chose request a leave of absence from work, in which he was granted. The employee remained on leave for 11 weeks, at which time he requested to return to his previous role with his employer, and in addition he also requested 11 weeks of back pay for the time that he was out on leave. The employee’s previous manager left the company during the duration of the leave, and was replaced by a new one. The new manager allowed the employee to return to his place of employment as well as maintain his previous pay rate. Given the provisions stipulated in the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA), the following will provide supporting evidence as to how the FMLA relates to the facts outlined in this particular situation. The employee was rightfully granted leave based on FMLA, which states that an employee is entitled up to 12 weeks of leave, upon the completion of one consecutive year of employment, for the birth of a child and other domestic hardships. Considering that the employee returned to work within the 12 week timeframe, and was given his previous role with comparable pay, it is fair to say that this action aligns with the provisions of the FMLA. On the subject of back pay for the 11 weeks that the employee was on leave, nowhere in the FMLA provisions does it dictate that an employee is eligible for such reimbursements upon his or her return from leave. The fact that the original manager left the company and was replaced...

...SITUATION A Issue For Review: Employee A requested to be paid for his 11 week LOA. Management denied request. The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA) The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is a U.S. federal law which requires employers to provide eligible employees at least 12 weeks of unpaid, leave of absence (LOA) time for certain qualifying medical or domestic reasons.

...Task One Western Governors University Situation A: Family Medical Leave Act of 1993 FMLA entitles eligible employees up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave per year. An eligible employee must have been employed with the company for a minimum of 12 months. The company must have 50 or more employees. An eligible employee is entitled to FLMA for the the birth or adoption of his or her child, a serious health condition of employee, or the employee’s immediate family member. Immediate family members consist of one’s spouse, parent or child. Employee A is eligible for FMLA because his wife has just given birth to their twin newborn children. He has worked for the company for two years. He requested FMLA and it was granted. Employee A only used 11 weeks of FMLA. There was not a violation of the Family Medical Leave Act in situation A. Employee A was granted FMLA. He took an 11 week leave of absence to be with his wife after her giving birth of their newborn children. Employee A asked to return to work. He also to be paid for the 11 weeks he used FMLA. Management has that Employee A can to return to his previous job, at the same rate of pay. The new manager did not agree to pay Employee A for the eleven weeks that the employee used for FMLA. Under FMLA guidelines, he is not entitled to a paid leave, unless it was stated in a contract. In this case it was not. Situation B: ADEA of 1967 ADEA stands for Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967. It was enacted to protect people...

...Situation A – Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA) is defined as: “The FMLA entitles eligible employees of covered employers to take unpaid, job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons with continuation of group health insurance coverage under the same terms and conditions as if the employee had not taken leave.” (Department of Labor, 2015) The Family Medical Leave Act covers different types of situation for most critical events of one’s life. One specific event is “The birth of a child and to care for the newborn child within one year of birth” (Department of Labor, 2015) This would allow Employee A to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid but job protected leave. After reading about this situation with Employee A and the 11 weeks of salary that we would like to be repaid back to him Company X does not need to repay the 11 weeks of withheld salary to Employee A. The Family Medical Leave Act only is supposed to protect your job while you are on leave. If Employee A had any Paid Time Off (PTO) available or Sick Leave he could use that while he was away. But the company does not owe him for any other pay if the Employee has not accrued it. Situation B – The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 prohibits Employers from discriminating against people over the age of 40. (U.S. EOOC, 2015) The situation that is presented states that a person that is 68 years old and was trying to get a promotion with Company X. A fellow co-worker was awarded the promotion...
