Why Should You Attend:

The FMLA requires covered employers to allow eligible employees up to 12 weeks of unpaid job-protected leave and benefits to care for their own or a family member’s serious health condition. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA) require employers to provide reasonable accommodations to qualified employees with disabilities so that they can perform the essential functions of their jobs—and a leave of absence may very well be such a reasonable accommodation.

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 training package will help unravel this tangled web of often overlapping employee leave laws. It will help you alleviate concerns about administrative challenges, employee leave abuse and negative impact to your bottom line on one end and risk of non-compliance with FMLA, ADA and workers’ comp laws on the other end.

Areas Covered in the Training Package:

Module 1 - Untangling the FMLA, ADAAA, GINA, and Workers Compensation Laws

  • The basic of workers' compensation and why it may trigger rights under the Family and Medical Leave Act.

  • When the ADAAA may require you to extend leave requirements beyond state workers' compensation laws or beyond FMLA?
  • How to get the medical information you need without violating GINA, FMLA, and the ADAAA?
