That should have been discussed when she was hired. x amount of sick days, x amount of vacation days, x amount of personal days....
this was the point i was trying to get at when i previously mentioned FMLA, steve. in situations where FMLA doens't apply, then it's a matter of the agreed upon terms of employment such as absences, vacation days, etc. when FMLA does apply, then someone can be on approved leave without pay and still have a expectation of an equivalently paying job when they return.
