Employer Can Require Compliance with Call-In Policy, Even During FMLA Leave.
Ogletree Deakins 
[Guidance Overview] Dec. 13, 2010
Excerpt: FMLA regulations specifically provide that an employer may require an employee on FMLA leave to 'report periodically on the employee's status and intent to return to work.' Thompson did not dispute that she failed to comply with the call-in policy, but argues that she would not have been terminated if she hadn't taken FMLA leave. The Eighth Circuit held that to the contrary, Thompson's repeated violations of the company's policy were not directly related to any particular FMLA leave but to her failure to report her own absences as required and, therefore, summary judgment in the company's favor was appropriate.
