FMLA Bootcamp

posted by TrueNorth Companies on Thursday, February 20, 2020

The Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) has been challenging employers since its passage in 1993. Long definitions, specific timelines and counter-intuitive rules leave even experienced human resource practitioners questioning how to handle FMLA and related matters.

This FMLA Bootcamp educates participants on key definitions, key time deadlines and a multitude of best practices for managing FMLA leave.

We reviewed and resolved common problems and misconceptions under FMLA such as:

  • Concurrent use of leave time
  • Lack of medical information
  • Lack of employee communication
  • The steps an employer should take at the end of an FMLA leave and how to  manage intermittent leave

TrueNorth partnered with Fisher & Phillips' Jennifer Sandberg, Partner, to present this educational session.
