Description

Navigating the landscape of employee leaves of absence can be a complex and challenging task for HR professionals and employers. While the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides essential protections, there are several situations where FMLA is not enough to address all leave-related issues.

Does the FMLA apply, does the Americans with Disabilities apply?  What about your own policies?  Lawsuits over leaves of absences can be costly as juries sympathize with someone who needed some time off to deal with an injury or illness. 

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • Refresher of the Family and Medical Leave Act
  • Can you terminate once FMLA is exhausted?
  • What other entitlements come into play once the FMLA is exhausted?   
  • How to comply with all leave laws when they overlap.  
  • What entitlements does an employee have when FMLA is exhausted?
  • Potential abuses of the FMLA

Who Should Attend:

This webinar is designed for HR professionals, compliance officers, managers, supervisors, and anyone responsible for leave administration and workforce management.
