Isn’t FMLA a federal law that protects your job while you’re out sick or caring for ill family members? I think covered employers are those with 50 or more employees, and it applies to all states.

But maybe you’re asking about something else. In any event, I wish you an easy recovery.

Washington state has a program on top of FMLA. Not only guarantees job but also pays a portion of your salary. As someone else said there are stipulations for qualifying. You have to have worked so many hours per year. You also have to pay the premium through payroll deduction. Since the employer is in Oregon likely the OP has not been paying it.
