Gain a better understanding with advanced knowledge in FMLA issues and solutions.

Is ensuring your company's compliance with the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) giving you a ‘serious health condition'? Does trying to determine the interplay between the FMLA, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) make you want to file an unfair labor practice charge? If so, then this information is for you.

You will learn what constitutes a ‘serious health condition' under the FMLA, what you can do to identify and address potential abuse of FMLA leave, and the interplay between the FMLA and other similar medical and disability-related leave statutes.
