Survey:How long must an employer hold a job open if employee is out because of accident or illness?

FMLA law says 12 weeks I believe. (Family Medical Leave Act)





they cannot fire you under this law, but they can find a way around it if there was impending termination.





and even then they do not have to have the same job available for you when you return. just employment @i believe equal pay





this only applies to companies with more than 55? employees and you must have had at least a minimum amount of time put in there (sorry, not real specific, i know) check with FMLA. if I wasn't heading out right now, I would.
