Work said they will deny our monthly bonus for calling in sick (even if it’s just for an hour, even if it’s the night before). And if it happens more than once every 3 months we’ll get written up. But they let slip that this wouldn’t happen if we had FMLA for a disability or health condition (the example given was migraines). I have a long history of migraines and, while I rarely take time off work, I’d like the option without basically reducing my pay by $3/hour for the month.
The only thing is, I have no idea how to do that. Do I contact my doctor or HR first? I’d look for another job but finding legitimate remote data work that doesn’t require customer interaction is really hard to find, so I’ll take advice on that too if you’ve got specifics.
Thank you!
