What usually triggers FMLA?
If an employee is absent for three or more days, or is anticipating an absence for three or more days due to a serious health condition, the employee and/or department should notify the Office of Human Resources Management. Applying for FMLA does not mean the leave will be granted or that the employee is eligible. The University of Texas at Dallas is required to inform the employee of their FMLA rights when made aware of the situation.
