Can you get laid off while on sabbatical or bonding leave?

Yes. I have a friend who was on short term disability getting chemo and was laid off. When you are targeted, you could be on your death bed and still get the pink slip.
I once got laid off from a job while out on FMLA leave.
After the layoff, I sat down with a local well respected Employment lawyer who told me that I could try to sue them and hope I got a sympathetic judge/jury. In reality, however, so-called Government protections are mostly smoke and mirrors in right-to-work states.
better question is how or when you will be notified of layoff if you are on leave.
Yes. And opposed to many haters here, even DEIs I know of have been fired while on sick leave and/or vacation time… so yes it is possible… for everyone and to everyone.
yes, unless you are a DEI
Yes it’s possible
Google recently laid off a woman who just gave birth. What do you think?
Yes, even if your on newborn leave. This has no impact on who they choose.
