Description
1. The federal Family and Medical Leave Act ("FMLA" or "Act"), Section 2601 et seq., Title 29, U.S.Code, guarantees up to twelve weeks of unpaid leave during a one-year period for a qualifying employee needing time off to care for a relative. In addition to providing substantive rights, the FMLA provides specific remedies for employees who have been aggrieved by their employers violation of the Act. This case asks us to recognize, as a matter of Ohio common law, a cause of action for wrongful discharge in violation of public policy based solely on an employers violation of the FMLA. Because allowing such a claim is unnecessary to vindicate the policy goals of the FMLA, we decline to do so.
