Know how to properly administer the various statutes and regulations covering federal employees’ leave with this collection of case decisions from the MSPB, EEOC, FLRA, arbitrators and courts. Quick-read case summaries spell out essential facts, the rulings and what they mean for your agency.

Each chapter spotlights a specific type of leave and groups case summaries by deciding body — making it easy to find the legal precedent you need to:

• Handle leave without pay, official time, military leave, administrative leave, annual leave, enforced leave, FMLA, religious leave, sick leave and more
• Determine whether an employee has engaged in misconduct and the discipline warranted
• Avoid discriminatory or retaliatory action while administering leave

And, two charts illustrate key points, with a side-by-side comparison of FMLA Titles I and II, and the effect of extended leave without pay.
