SilverStone Group Strategy Series - FMLA: To Leave or Not To Leave?

FMLA: To Leave or Not To Leave?
The Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) can provide benefits to both employers and employees, however it can also be very complicated and create potential risks if not administered correctly.  In addition, FMLA situations can become even more complicated when Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and workers compensation accommodations are involved.

Andie Gordman- SilverStone Group
This session will provide an overview of the requirements of the FMLA, best practices for administration and a checklist to ensure your organization is in compliance with the regulations. 

Nichole Mohning- Cutler Law Firm
Case studies will be reviewed to show the complexities of these situations and explain some of the most common mistakes and how to avoid them.  We will also address why non-covered organizations should have leave policies that set out the terms and conditions for leave to provide protection for the employee and employer. 

Amy DeJong- SilverStone Group
Key questions surrounding FMLA and Work Comp will be answered as we continue to review employer compliance responsibilities with the law.
