We recommend that advocates on both sides of the table check out this post from the folks at JacksonLewis, who get paid to advise managers. It raises the idea that unions could demand that agencies provide employee on FMLA leave with work, including telework tasks, so that the employee can stay away from the agency worksite for a longer period of calendar time by stretching their 12 weeks.
