Reply to Washington FMLA help by bmajeremy

Isn’t FMLA a federal law that protects your job while you’re out sick or caring for ill family members? I think covered employers are those with 50 or more employees, and it applies to all states.

But maybe you’re asking about something else. In any event, I wish you an easy recovery.

Reply to Washington FMLA help by bmajeremy

There is a paid leave Oregon program that starts next year, but I think nothing now other than any sick time and short term disability from your current employer. You probably need to apply for your time off under federal FMLA to protect your job, but that is just time off guarantee and no pay.

WA PFMLA requires that you have paid in through worked hours in Washington. If the premium is not coming out of your check then you will not qualify (min 820 hours worked and paid in to qualify). have you had any WA state pay since the program started?

ETA: If you are an independent contractor, there is a way to pay your own premiums to join the program, but You would know if you were paying the premium then.

Don't know about FMLA, but if you work in Oregon you pay Oregon state income taxes. You can't just designate your own tax status.
