We have a an attendance programs that rewards our employees with 8 personal hours if they've had 'perfect attendance' the previous quater. Because these are hours earned for not being absent, can we consider employess out on FMLA as ineligible for the bonus hours?

Thanks in advance

    The FMLA is quite specific about the fact that employers cannot hold FMLA time off against employees attendance records. Therefore, if an employee would ordinarily receive a perfect attendance award but has FMLA covered absences, he/she is still entitled to the award. For many employees, FMLA means "Forget My Last Absence."
