Employee's Mother Was Assessed by Social Worker, Not Health Care Provider; Court Finds No FMLA Entitlement
Wolters Kluwer Law & Business Link to more items from this source
Feb. 26, 2016
"[A] federal court in Washington granted summary judgment against the interference claim of an employee denied leave to take care of his mother who was suffering from dementia. Although she had been assessed by a social worker, the social worker was not a health care provider as defined under the FMLA, and thus the mother was not under the continual supervision of a health care provider at the time the employee requested leave in order to care for her[.]" [White v. AG Supply Co. of Wenatchee, No. 2:15-CV-0089 (E.D. Wash. Feb. 23, 2016)]
