OVERVIEW
Dealing with leave laws and compliance is confusing at best; dealing with multiple leave laws at once is that much more difficult. Adding to the complexity are new decisions from the case and federal regulations that mandate employers to consider multiple types of leave or accommodation when an employee requests accommodation. This program will separate the laws, discuss the necessities of each and then, in a simple, accessible way, provide a toolbox of practical tools to enable human resources to sort out how each law works with every other relevant leave law.
Maintaining compliance with the leave laws is extremely complicated in this day and age; maintaining compliance with multiple laws at once is exponentially more difficult. Any who is fairly new to human resources should attend this program to learn all about how these laws can be dealt with effectively and correctly.
We will cover the following:
- FMLA
- ADA
- USERRA
- Workers Compensation
- Unemployment Compensation
- HIPAA
- Relevant caselaw on these laws
This program will discuss each of the health-related leave laws:
This program will also cross reference and explain the relationships between each of these laws and how they interact with each other so that compliance is maintained.
