Figuring out how to navigate the FMLA can be challenging in itself. So, when ADA or Workers’ Compensation is involved too, the complications can make most HR professionals sweat.
Sometimes, the most fascinating or puzzling FMLA scenarios blend several legal concepts into one situation – marital status laws, spousal limits, parental definitions, jurisdictional differences, etc. — that HR professionals must pause and look beyond surface assumptions to unpack.
Also, there are situations when an FMLA-eligible employee may also be protected under the ADA/ADAAA, and therefore qualify for an extended leave of absence – beyond the FMLA’s 12-week maximum. If that’s not enough, when you have employees who are eligible for time off from work under workers’ compensation laws, the potential for overlap, not to mention administrative challenges and the impact on your company’s bottom-line seems to increase exponentially.
This webinar will help participants unpack this puzzle of often overlapping employee leave laws. It will help you alleviate concerns about staying in compliance, the administrative challenges, employee leave abuse scenarios, and avoid any negative impact to your org’s bottom line.
