FMLA Violations and Enforcement
Unlawful Actions by Employers - The FMLA makes it unlawful for any employer to:
• Interfere with, restrain, or deny the exercise of any right provided under the FMLA; or • Discharge or discriminate against any person for opposing any practice made unlawful by the FMLA or for involvement in any proceeding under or related to the FMLA. Enforcement - An employee may file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Labor or may bring a private lawsuit against an employer. The FMLA does not affect any Federal or State law prohibiting discrimination or supersede any State or local law or collective bargaining agreement which provides greater family or medical leave rights.
