Abstract A question on how an employer-initiated schedule reduction affects an employee on intermittent Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) leave is answered. Tracking the leave time that employees take becomes more complicated as well, since the scheduled hours have been reduced. Employers may account for leave in increments no greater than the shortest period in which they account for other absences, such as sick and vacation days. More important, an employee's entitlement may not be reduced by more than the amount of leave actually taken, according to FMLA regulations.
