I have to take short-term disability – but where will that leave my job?

Short-term disability is a wage replacement benefit that provides compensation for injuries or illnesses that happen away from the job that renders employees unable to work for a short period of time. FMLA prevents an employee from losing their job or benefits, and protects them from retaliation, in the event of a need for a leave of absence from work to deal with a health condition or care-giving responsibility. Generally, the law allows employees to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave in a 12-month period.
