HR here and the answer is absolute not. FMLA protects your job, you must return to same position, same hours and same rate of pay/benefits

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) guarantees you return to your exact same job or an equivalent position with identical pay, benefits, and working conditions

yes, its a shitty thing to do but yes it is. fmla guarantees you a job to return to, NOT necessarily the same job you had.

Under 29 U.S.C. § 2614, when you return from FMLA leave, your employer must restore you to the same job, or an equivalent job with equivalent pay, benefits, and working conditions. if they don't you have a pretty good retaliation lawsuit

No, FMLA is literally there to protect your position and wage

Can't retaliate for using FMLA. A good lawyer will take them to the bank

Fmla protects your ability to take off work for medical reasons does not guarantee your pay when you return

The entire point of FMLA is to hold your position or a position with the same type of work and pay. If the company doesn't honor that it's a monster lawsuit. Don't even complain to the company just get a lawyer and continue working. Don't talk bad about the company to coworkers or even discuss the situation. And stay off of social media talking about it.

Capitalism is “pro-corporation” Socialism is “pro-people” hope that helps when you’re deciding to vote.

That specifically is one of the things that FMLA protects!

Call the labor board. They’ll sort them out real quick with a 3 year audit.

No. That's considered punishment for taking your FMLA ask any employment lawyer.

your current position is only protected for a certain amount of time. if you go over that time then you forfeit that position and they can give you any position that is available at that time

I worked in law firms for 20 yrs. You’re entitled to be restored to the same position you held before leave, or to an equivalent position — meaning equivalent pay, benefits, and other terms and conditions. A pay reduction, especially where your agreement was forced as a condition upon return, would violate that restoration requirement unless it applies to everyone in a legitimate way (like a company-wide pay cut that hits all employees in your role, not just you as a condition of returning), or if your job was truly eliminated and the employer would have to show proof.

Aaron Santos :
There is also an important pay protection when you return: the restored position generally must have equivalent pay, benefits, schedule/opportunities, and employment terms. An employer cannot reduce your pay, demote you, take away shifts, or otherwise penalize you because you used FMLA.

yes. fmla requires them to hold a job for you, but it can be a "similar" job that pays less....it protects your job not your pay

FMLA protects your job and position for 90 days. After the 90 days it is 100% legal.

If the pay cut is not because of fmla, yes. They can. For example, if everyone got a pay cut while you were out, they can cut your pay too. If it’s JUST you and no one else in your position, I would file a complaint

theHRgay :
from an HR perspective (and i really hate to say this) it actually depends... is the reason for the pay cut because you took leave? or for example, did 25% of the workforce also receive a pay cut during the time you were on leave?
