It’s No Longer the Bermuda Triangle; It’s Now a Four Way Stop. Learn How to Navigate FMLA, WC, ADA, and PWFA
FMLA, ADA, PWFA, PUMP, WC, WFEA. These are only some of the laws employers might have to follow when an employee asks for time off of work or for accommodations. These laws can be triggered when employees experience serious health conditions, disabilities, worker’s compensation injuries, pregnancy, child birth, or lactation. In many situations, an employee might be covered by more than one of these laws at the same time. Employees don’t have specifically invoke their rights under these laws, so long as employers are generally on notice of their potential need for leave or accommodations. The goal of this session is to help employers identify and navigate situations when employees are covered by these various state and federal laws.
Attendees will learn:
- The scope of various state and federal laws requiring employers to accommodate employees or grant them leave
- How to commit to the interactive process regarding accommodations
- The importance of thinking through all the various laws implicated by an employee’s specific situation
