How do I get thwt

following

I'm not sure about unemployment but you may be able to get protection through FMLA. Short Term Disability is basically like a form of FMLA.

Oh how do I apply for that?

Your doctor can send you the info to apply for the disability leave, and your work should give you info for your FMLA

hmmm I'll try I guess

no to unemployment. most employers offer FMLA if you've worked at your company for a year. I haven't and I only qualify for short term disability. 60% of my wage for 6 weeks. better than nothing.

How do u apply for short term disability?

I don't apply for fmla bc I only been there 10 months
