Short term disability



Recommended Posts

Not sure but I think the rule is that they don't have to have the details but you would need a note from doctor regarding required time off. Most short term disability requires you also to take like a week of sick leave first and depending on your job most people don't take more than a couple weeks. My doctor wouldn't sign off on more than two weeks unless I had complications

Thanks ! My doctor told me he approves up to 8 weeks not that I would take all of it but he said it's completely up to me . I am thinking 4 to make sure I'm at 100% before going back

i went through a 12 week program and then met with surgeon. I have lost about 30 pounds and doing well. I decided to go with the sleeve. I then asked my boss for a couple weeks off for surgery and he replied with " not till 4th quarter" which is Sept. I work in fashion apparel and its absurd. what are my rights?

You have the right to take FMLA, and they can't fire you. Not sure if your in an "AT WILL" state or not. Look and see what rules and requirements is in your state. Most states, you have to have been on that job for at least a year. The catch also is, they only have to guarantee you "A JOB," not necessarily the job that you had. Well Goodluck with that.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
