[MA] Denied Medical Leave
Hello, this post is about a denied FMLA leave I have. My Drs unfortunately never returned my documents on time and I have reached out to them regarding my leave. Each time they tell me it will take time to get these documents finished and the last time I spoke to them which was a week ago they said they never got the documents to sign. However, prior to that message I had gotten a phone call confirming the medication I would take so I could get the forms sent and I never received them. Now I am getting a written conduct memo for an unexcused absence from my manager although they’re aware of the situation. What are my best options on reversing this conduct memo and not having my medical leave count against me? I live in MA and I had enough sick time to cover most of my leave which was a week.
