Eligible employees may take FMLA leave on an intermittent or
reduced schedule basis when medically necessary due to the serious
health condition of a covered family member or the employee or the
serious injury or illness of a covered servicemember. See Sec.
825.202. Eligible employees may also take FMLA leave on an intermittent
or reduced schedule basis when necessary because of a qualifying
exigency. If an employee needs leave intermittently or on a reduced
leave schedule for planned medical treatment, then the employee must
make a reasonable effort to schedule the treatment so as not to disrupt
unduly the employer's operations.
