Legal Answers
5 Questions Answered
- Q. I am vital postal employee. I have used up my sick leave and holiday pay for my husbands cancer.
- A: If you are still looking for assistance it is my opinion that you would strongly benefit from speaking with an attorney who focuses on federal sector employment law to go over your case in detail. It is likely that as a postal service employee you do have additional protections related to expanded COVID-19 leave protections than many other federal employees (Title 5 employees). Specifically, unlike Title 5 employees, you may be covered by the Expanded Family and Medical Leave Provisions Enacted in Division C of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA). Best of luck!
- Q. I work for federal. I am vital. I have waited a very long time to get upcoming surgery that will need my existing sick
- A: More information is needed to answer this question. Are you stating that you work for the federal government? If so, I would contact a lawyer that represents federal employees to go over your situation in greater detail. Many offer free consultations. Best of luck.
- Q. Can I file a suit for personal injury against the Federal government?
- A: It is also possible you could have a valid EEO claim and you may be able to seek damages for pain and suffering (compensatory damages). I would speak with an attorney who represents federal employees to discuss your options. Best of luck!
