An employee is entitled to use up to 12 weeks (480 hours) of sick leave each leave year to provide care for a family member with a serious health condition.
When a family medical emergency arises, the employee should make an appointment with their company's human resource department and discuss the sick time vs. FMLA policy. If you use paid sick leave for a medical condition that is not serious, this time should not be counted against your FMLA. You should also know that your employer by law may not discriminate against you because of FMLA time used.
