Recert?

FunHRBanker · October 2007

Employee has taken approved intermittent leave for her father's cancer treatments (leave dated January 2007). Father now needs heart surgery because of a condition caused by the treatment. I do need to recertify the leave, correct? It is a new condition, albeit caused by the original. There was no end date listed on the original certification. Her mother also needs surgery. That would be separate paperwork also, right?

I need to clearly explain this to the employee as she tends to forget specifics and spin it to her needs/beliefs.

Try checking out [url]www.dol.gov[/url], you might find some useful info there. I'm guessing that you will probably need to recertify since it is a new condition.

I have the FMLA portion of that site bookmarked!

I figured I should recertify, even if the conditions are related, because I haven't gotten one since January. I gave her separate paperwork for her mother also.
