Employee is scheduled to work 9.5 hours a day Monday – Friday. he is on Intermittent FMLA and calls off do I charge him for 9.5 hours for that day towards his FMLA? Also, if he’s scheduled for 47.5 hours a week do I add the 7.5 hours overtime each week to his balance even if he only worked 1 hour overtime in a week?

When deducting intermittent FMLA time, the number of expected work hours for that week should be deducted. So, if the employee averages 47.5 hours in a workweek, then you are probably working with 570 hours/12 weeks of FMLA. When the worker is off an hour here or there, you deduct the time. When the worker is off a full day, deduct 9.5 hours if that is what would have been expected on that day. When the employee is off a full week, deduct the weekly rate of 47.5.
