It all depends. You are no protected from all adverse job actions just because you are on FMLA. The question is whether the change in salary would have occurred even if you had not been on FMLA? Have others also had their salaries decreased?

You might want to read more at www.dol.gov. Scroll to the FMLA page.

Otherwise, I would be happy to discuss it with you in an office visit or a free 15 minute phone conference.
