About this Program:
Injury, illness, pregnancy or disability, or any combination, may require an employee’s leave of absence. That requirement may trigger the application of various state and federal laws that seem to mandate overlapping or even contradictory responses by the employer.
This program will shed light on your responsibilities and obligations when an employee’s absence, illness, injury, or disability thrusts you in the middle of many complex federal and state laws including the FMLA, ADA, Ohio Workers' Compensation Law and proposed state and federal paid sick time legislation. |
|
During this seminar, you will learn to:
- Identify which law applies when
- Learn the interrelationship among overlapping leave laws
- Effectively manage employee leaves of absences without violating the law
- Learn about proposed paid leave legislation
