Is my boss taking my FMLA illegally?

If I am injured at work and I am on workmans comp, my employer says he can exhaust all my FMLA for the year if I am off for 3 months,wheather I like it or not! Is he correct or is he just bulling me around? Thank You Beau Melgreen

yes

yes, your family leave entitlement can run concurrently with your workers compensation leave. if you do not return at the end of your fmla/cfra leave, your return rights are no longer guaranteed. your only return rights would be governed by workers compensation laws.
if you do not have a workers compensation attorney already, you should hire one immediately.
good luck
