The best option for Corrine in this situation is to use her sick days or vacation days. This way, she can extend her time off without losing her job while ensuring that she has a legitimate reason for being absent. Other options, such as suing her company or bringing her baby to work, are not advisable or practical.
Corrine works in the local steel factory in Missouri with her husband. Both often work 50+ hours per week and need every penny from their hard-earned paychecks to survive. Corrine recently had a baby and experienced some health issues with the birth that will keep her from returning to work right away. Corrine’s company only offers two-weeks unpaid maternity leave before they have the right to replace the new parent, and Corrine cannot afford to lose her job. What can Corrine do in order to stay home with her baby longer without losing her job?
