How To Avoid The Most-Common FMLA/ADA Compliance Mistakes
The FMLA and ADA are two of the most complicated laws that HR Managers have to deal with. "Leaves" under the law can be disruptive to workers, supervisors, and co-workers when employees repeatedly take leaves of absence.

But is the employee who consistently is given FMLA leave on Fridays using the law correctly or abusing the system because the employer doesn't manage FMLA correctly?

Employers should be aware - and utilize - laws and strategies to limit use and abuse, but need to do so correctly or risk legal fines and headaches.

Attend this webinar and learn how to avoid the top 10 mistakes that employers make when dealing with the administrative nightmares of FMLA, ADA, and leave of absence issues.

You'll better understand what a "serious health condition" is and how it differs from a "disability", what issues and checklists you need to be aware of before approving a requested leave of absence - and before terminating an employee who has been on such a leave of absence, as well as what the "interactive process" under the ADA requires.

About Webcasts / Audio Conferences / Podcasts:Webcasts, audio conferences, and podcasts are presentations that you attend via the Internet, phone, or mobile device at a specified date and time for "live" versions, or at your convenience for "recorded" and "On-Demand" versions.

The live versions are interactive, meaning that participants can ask questions in real time, plus are a very cost-effective form of training because 1) you receive fast, convenient learning without any out-of-office time; 2) you can invite as many colleagues as you'd like to listen in on a single phone line; 3) you incur no travel expenses; and 4) you and your colleagues are back at work immediately after the session ends!

And though with recorded versions you do lose the ability to ask questions, you gain the ability to hear the presentation numerous times and to share it with others in your office.

Handout materials and the phone number for live presentations are made available to you prior to the event via email from the presenter and from the "MyAccount" link on the menu bar. Copies of the presentations are included with recorded versions.
