- noting “the FMLA does not provide for leave on short notice when longer notice readily could have been given”
- finding proper termination where employee failed to call in accordance with a collective bargaining agreement
- \Nothing in the FMLA or the implementing regulations prevents an employer from enforcing a rule requiring employees on FMLA leave to keep the employer informed about the employee's plans.\
- “[T]he FMLA does not provide for leave on short notice when longer notice readily could have been given.”
- employee that failed to report to work for three consecutive days without notifying company, in violation of governing collective bargaining agreement, could not prevail on interference claim
- “But it does not follow [from the fact that neither party needs to mention the FMLA for the employee to be on FMLA leave] that all family leave must be under the FMLA unless the employer negates that possibility by imposing a 30-day delay”
