Description

Medical leaves are governed by many laws that can create difficult compliance issues for an employer. These laws are: the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA); the Americans with Disability Act (ADA); workers’ compensation laws; the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA); and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

Understanding the basics of these laws, as well as the similarities, the distinctions and the interrelationships among them, is critical to your business. This 90-minute webinar will provide a wealth of practical advice to enable HR professionals, attorneys and business executives to learn how to comply with these laws that affect medical leaves.

Agenda

This program will cover:

The basics of compliance with:

o  FMLA
o  Disability and Accommodation under the ADA
o  Workers’ Compensation Law,
o  USERRA’s disability leave provisions
o  HIIPAA’s effect on medical information sharing

Specific challenges under these often conflicting laws:

o  Running leaves concurrently under multiple laws
o  FMLA leave as accommodation under ADA
o  Tacking absence under USERRA
o  Notification and documentation requirements
o  Permitted inquiries and medical examinations
