More than 3 day rule

GLC

When the "more than 3 days" rule is used, and the ee was also sick on the weekend, does that count for FMLA when we do not work the weekend. So the ee was out sick Thur, Fri, and sick the both Sat. Sun. Would that Thurs and Fri be FMLA given that we are closed on the weekend?

On the FMLA index, scroll down to the above thread title for your answer to this question.

Don, Have pity on someone trying to catch up from vacation and can't take time to scroll -- don't only "business days" count?

No, calendar days need to be counted.

juju is right. The Act never once mentions 'business days'. Sorry Ethel, I was trying to post a quick route to the answer.
