The answer is NO! if you are an eligible employee.

If this has already happened to you it is time to interview a few employment attorneys to discuss you options. You may have a viable suit against your employer. I suggest you keep a daily diary of everything that happens and your emotional feelings during this time.

Covered employers must grant an eligible employee up to a total of 12 workweeks of unpaid leave during any 12-month period for one or more of the following reasons: * for the birth and care of the newborn child of the employee; FMLA 29 CFR 825.104 - Employers with over 50 full time employees are covered by this act.

FMLA 29 CFR 825.110 -

(a) An ``eligible employee'' is an employee of a covered employer

who:

(1) Has been employed by the employer for at least 12 months, and

(2) Has been employed for at least 1,250 hours of service during the

12-month period immediately preceding the commencement of the leave, and

(3) Is employed at a worksite where 50 or more employees are

employed by the employer within 75 miles of that worksite. (See

Sec. 825.105(a) regarding employees who work outside the U.S.)

(b) The 12 months an employee must have been employed by the

employer need not be consecutive months.

Is your previous employer required to give information to you on a third party that injured you while working for them if you decide to sue this third such as their name and address if not how would you obtain this info?

The employer is not required to give you any information on other employees. However, if you hire a lawyer to sue the third party, the lawyer can be subpeona which would make the employer release this information. Another way to obtain information on employees is through tax information that the employer is required to submit to the government. Another easy way to obtain information is to ask other employees at the company.

IF NLRB says no, the strikers are permanently replaced.

Can your employer charge back insurance after maternity leave if you decide not to return to work?

In general, if the insurance was in force at the time of the pregnancy, the coverage will apply according to its terms. If the employee qualifies for the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) benefits, and decides not to return to work, the employee and the employee are generally allowed to agree to terms by which the employee can reimburse the employee for the cost of insurance that remains in force during the FMLA coverage period.
