| PREGNANT WORKER HAS FMLA RIGHTS DESPITE EMPLOYMENT FOR LESS THAN ONE YEAR |
| |
 |
| |
| In January a hospital employee notified her employer that she was pregnant and would be taking a leave in July - more than 12 months after her hire. She was fired two weeks after requesting a leave. "An employee is not barred from proceeding with a retaliation claim under the FMLA if he or she has been employed for less than twelve months but requests leave to begin more than one year after employment commenced." |
