Can a teacher who is on FMLA return to work as a substitute teacher while she is still on FMLA?

    This depends on the FMLA reason.

    If the teacher is on FMLA to take care of a sick parent or child, but can subsitute on certain days, because another family member is stepping it, working as a sub would appear consistant with the FMLA. For example, if someone got FMLA from work, but worked on weekends because it was consistant with the need of the person they are taking care of they could still be entitled to FMLA.

    If the teacher is on FMLA for her own serious health condition, if he or she can sub, why can't they teach? That would be my question.

    You will have to look closely at the facts to answer this one.

    Good Luck!
