    Abusing Leave
    Sharyn Orr Maldonado
    Imagine this hypothetical: Jim, an employee who works on your loading dock, claims he has a serious back injury and provides you with a certification from his physician requesting leave to care for his serious health condition. You grant him leave under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA).

    A week into his leave, Joe is spotted at the local water park speeding down a giant water slide – with no apparent pain from his “serious back injury.” This “hypothetical” is more common than you would think.
