Question: are chronic migraines covered under fmla?
Answer: Employee Terminated for Migraine Headaches Can Advance FMLA Claim. In the cold, sadistic world that is the FMLA, the Department of Labor tells us that ordinary, run-of-the-mill headaches (a/k/a “non-migraine” headaches) are not covered by the FMLA. Migraine headaches, on the other hand, are covered.
