Aloha,
For starters I reside in Pennsylvania for reference purposes.
Story: I am being treated for cancer and I have exausted my 480 FMLA hours. I also have exausted all of my paid time off.
In order to maintiain my employment full medical leave is the only option. I will be on this leave till at lest June 2019.
I had utilzed two months short term for my initial two surgeries then used up the rest of my FMLA hours for radiation and follow ups. This ended when I returned to work in July. Being I have the same diagnosis and it is beyond thirty days since I was last on full medical I will need to use short term for 90 days then go to long term.
What this means is our family is going to lose 50 percent of my income for an extended period. Not acceptable to me.
I have been searching for volunteer work to keep myself busy then I ran across some part time executive directors positions for non-profits that require about 20 hours per week and will pay betweeen 40 and 60 thousand per year. This, if they are willing to hire me for a few months, would fill in the lost wages.
I do not want to ask my employer this question so it comes here. If I am on full medical leave from my employer and recieving the above stated benefits is there anything prohibiting me from taking on supplemental work?
