Does your job make you fill out FMLA paperwork?

Question

I gave my doctor my FMLA paperwork during my last visit and he was so annoyed....he said the paperwork they gave me was for an injury not a pregnancy. At my last job, which was a daycare, they just put my hours in and treated me as a pregnant person. Now at the casino i work they treat me terribly and won’t do anything to help or accommodate my pregnancy unless i have paperwork. And even when i get it, they still treat me like shit!

Answer

Yes we legally have to. The doctor should fill it out for you.

Answer

Yes, they legally have to.

Answer

Yeah you have to actually file it when using FMLA because it has legal ramifications vs if the job just voluntarily lets you take the time off.

Answer

Yep. Had to download it off the government website and turn it in before I was granted official leave. My doctor’s office also said a lot of times they want a release back to work too for FMLA before you go back to work. Just an FYI
