    Hi, we have an employee out on Worker’s Comp. Our company is based in CT. I sent the employee the FMLA paperwork and received a nice letter from an Attorney that stated that the employee while out was covered under the WC Law and did not need to complete the FMLA paperwork.

    It is my understanding that WC does not protect their job but that we are required to provide “light duty” or return the employee to “full duty” once the Doctor has cleared it.

    What is the difference then? With FMLA their job is protected and with WC it also seems as though A job is protected.

    Thank you.

    Hi Lisa, should we be providing FMLA paperwork to all of those employees that we know are going out to have some kind of health condition even if they plan on returning to work within a week?

    What if they don’t complete it and return to work, should I count that time as FMLA?
