What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? IL
My husband is having major surgery. He is already off of work due to all of the Doctor appts and tests he is going thru. By the time of his surgery, next week, he will have already exhausted all of his sick, vacation and personal time and will have used up about a week of FMLA leave. I know he has 12 weeks of FMLA. It will be close, but if everything goes well, he should be back to work before his FMLA runs out. My question is: If there are complications and he needs to be off of work for any period of time past his FMLA running out, can he be fired? He works for County Government Agency. Thank you. If more information is needed, please ask.
