Employers handling employee absences may have to comply with two federal laws at once. The ADA covers employers with at least 15 employees, and leave can be a reasonable accommodation. The FMLA covers employers with at least 50 employees and gives eligible employees 12 weeks of unpaid leave a year.
This 75-minute FMLA and ADA interplay webinar explains your obligations under each law, where they overlap and where they diverge. You'll compare a serious health condition under the FMLA with a disability under the ADA, and see which conditions fall under one law, the other or both.
You'll also learn how to substantiate leave through FMLA certification and ADA medical inquiries, the limits courts place on indefinite leave, undue hardship, and when the ADA may require leave after FMLA runs out.
Violating either law while managing employee leave can lead to costly litigation and attorney fees. Knowing what each law requires and restricts helps you avoid expensive mistakes.
The session suits HR leaders and staff from CHRO to generalist, leave administrators, benefits specialists, general and plant managers, and owners of smaller businesses.
