Roadway Express violated the Family and Medical Leave Act when it required an employee to concurrently use her paid leave, ruled the 7th Circuit last month, adding that a Department of Labor regulation precluded Roadway from requiring the employee to substitute paid leave for unpaid FMLA leave because she was receiving disability benefits from a benefit plan. Jenner & Block’s Carla Rozycki and David Haase say employers need to take note of this ruling in administering their own FMLA policies.
