This is also a violation of FMLA, but I can understand that sometimes a person who is on leave may have the answer to a question in order for the organization to continue running. So what does a company do? they want to follow the law, but they also want to make sure their business doesn't slow down when someone is on a necessary leave?

They expect their workers to be there every day. Even though employees know their rights, the fear of losing thier jobs takes a higher priority than taking a leave.
