[OPLINLIST] Family & Medical Leave

[Mark Mabelitini]

Hi,

This is the type of issue that should be referred to your legal counsel,
the County Prosecuting Attorney.

> Hello all:
> I have received conflicting information regarding whether a small public
> library must adhere to the provisions of the FMLA. We have less than 20
> employees. I have been told that we are not required to give time off for
> FMLA. On the other hand, if we are a political sub-division of the State
> of
> Ohio (who employs more than 50 persons), I've been told we must provide
> time
> off for FMLA. Also, are foster parents covered under FMLA when children
> are
> placed with them? Sometimes this is a temporary situation and sometimes
> children can be placed at any time, any hour, without any notice. Please
> advise.
> Thanks a million!
