COVID has introduced a “New Normal” into all our lives, and into the business world as a workplace. Employers have an obligation to provide a safe workplace and to prevent – or at least minimize—the spread of COVID-19. Granting employees leave to deal with COVID-related issues have been shown in studies to slow the spread. Beyond that, however, as with any medical issue, employees are entitled to medical leave under federal (and state) laws. Knowing what you do and do not have to do in this regard will enable your company to run it's business more effectively – and stay out of court!
Course Objectives:
Even the more simple leave requests can be complex and nuanced, posing challenges to even the most seasoned Leave Administrators. The possibility of costly, drawn-out litigation, only adds to the stress and pressure. Add to that: most employees making leave requests will be eligible for protection under the FMLA, ADA, and, more recently, the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) among other laws. In this webinar, we will discuss key, hot-button compliance issues and share some Best Practices for managing a workforce while staying in compliance.

• FMLA, ADA, FFCRA, and Workers’ Comp Basics
• Where FMLA, ADA, FFCRA* and Workers’ Comp overlap, and where/how they differ
