Answer:
Employers cannot legally deny FMLA leave if the employee meets all eligibility criteria and provides proper documentation. However, FMLA leave can be denied if:
❌ The employee has not worked 1,250 hours in the past year.
❌ The company has fewer than 50 employees (for private-sector businesses).
❌ The reason for leave does not meet FMLA requirements (e.g., non-serious illness).
Under PMLA, an employer may deny leave if:
❌ The employee is not eligible (e.g., averages fewer than 25 hours per week).
❌ The employee has not accrued enough leave hours.
Employers who wrongfully deny leave may face lawsuits, penalties, or reinstatement orders.
