If an employee misses work days due to a work related injury, can the days missed as a result of the WRI be counted against the amount of FMLA time the employee has available?

Yes it can as long as your policy states that FMLA and WC run concurrently. If your policy does not state that, you should change it so that it does and notify the employee, in writing, that the time off will count against their FMLA allottment.

Also agree. We changed our policy to read FMLA runs with WC and ST.
