I have an issue that maybe someone can answer or guide me in the right direction.
I have a situation where I have a documented FMLA medical problem with my employer. For the past year my employer has been great with all the time I've had to miss for my serious health appointments and recent emergencies.
My situation involves a disease where in order to confirm diagnosis, medical tests are done, verified, or dismissed as the secondary causes to the diagnosis. Therefore, this is very time consuming.
My immediate situation regards testing where surgery may be required, and time off for recovery under FMLA. The real mess involves that the plant I work for, will close in 14 months. If I'm exercising my FMLA rights, can the company terminate my employment with a federal 60 day notice while I'm FMLA leave? Or do they have to wait until I come back to work to give the 60 day notice? I anticipate that I'll return to work before the plant physically closes. I need to know the guidelines so that the company and I can do right.
Note... the company is not going out of business. Just one plant closing from the umbrella of a big company.
