What does everyone think about the Family Medical Leave Act.
I think for the most part, its bogus. Just another excuse for an employee to leave or take off work when they dont want to. Ive seen so many take a day, which is excused, unpaid of course, and never have any evaluation done. If you have a broken finger nail you can sign up on this junk. Ive also seen a lot take off because there spouse is simply going to the doctor and they "need to drive them". There definitely needs to be regulations set on a lot of this. I believe you can also take up to 3 or 4 months a year if needed.
Dont get me wrong, in some situations, especially with kids or horrible diseases an employee should be able to without worrying about his or her job and this is what its intended for however there are a lot who abuse this privilege way to much.
Who else has had experience with this and knows more about the regulations and rules on abusers.
