What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ohio
First of all, I have a union and I work for the state. I put in my 2 weeks notice and I do have FMLA on file for a family member who had a brain injury. After putting in my notice, this family member did have some "complications" and need treatment. I had some pre-approved personal time already, and I did call off FMLA. I had an email from human resources asking if I was going to return to work, because if not my notice would be my last day. I replied & told her that I was, but I did have pre-approved personal time & I had some FMLA family member complications. (I don't want to go into detail on this board.) I believe my employer is trying to fire me because I am hearing from other employees that I am not allowed back to work & I went to email human resources today, and my work email has been deactivated. If so, they will be sending me paperwork to sign. Can they do this? What should I do?
