Description:	Since the FMLA became law in 1993, employers have struggled with how to manage FMLA leave appropriately. In the intervening years, the eligibility requirements have changed to add coverage for certain leaves related to military service, and to better define the role of joint employers in the FMLA context. With these changes, and the increased use of FMLA leave, employers have been challenged to comply with the FMLA’s notice requirements, and its certification and recertification procedures. This webinar will teach employers how to comply with the FMLA’s notice requirements, and to get the most out of certifications of health care providers. The material also will provide an overview of privacy considerations affecting employers’ access to employee medical information, and critical guidance on how to get value from the recertification process. Employers will learn how to avoid intermittent leave abuse, and use job descriptions proactively. Plus, the information will provide tips for preventing FMLA retaliation claims. This webinar is critical for employers to ensure they are in full compliance with the requirements of the FMLA, and managing FMLA leave appropriately.Coverage and Eligibility Which Employers Need to Offer Coverage Considerations for Employee Eligibility Notice Requirements Certifications of Health Care Provider Requirements for Completion How to Deal With Incomplete Certifications Whether You Can Contact a Health Care Provider for More Information Overview of Privacy Considerations Affecting Employers' Access to Employee Medical Information Recertification Weeding out Fraudulent Claims and Avoiding Intermittent Leave Abuse How to Handle Intermittent Leave How to Use Job Descriptions Proactively How to Prevent FMLA Retaliation Claims Cannot Attend The Live Presentation?

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.
