FMLA-PUBLIC SECTOR

SVHRAZ

Is it true that in Public Sector/with union FMLA is not approved for an employee if the person needing the care is over 18 years old? Has anyone heard of this?

My understanding of the FMLA is that union affiliation doesn't come into play. Under the regulations of a "child" is states that a person who is over 18 but incapable of self-care is an eligible dependent under the law.
