Stop the Madness! Effective Ways to Protect Your Organization Against FMLA Abuse

Wednesday, December 11, 2019

  • 10:00 AM - 11:15 AM PST

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is generally considered to be an employee-friendly law, employers have often felt helpless to do anything but approve leave requests under FMLA and similar laws.

But we shouldn't feel helpless! In this complimentary webinar, the speakers will provide practical suggestions on how you can address suspected FMLA misuse in your workplace, focusing on the steps you can take (as opposed to the steps you can't take) to root out and minimize FMLA abuse.

Through the use of case studies and a bit of humor, you will learn how to:

  • Identify and understand the most common forms of FMLA abuse
  • Effectively use certification and recertification to respond to a pattern of misuse or suspect FMLA abuse
  • Document FMLA effectively to curb FMLA abuse
  • Manage intermittent FMLA leave—a main culprit of FMLA abuse
  • Conduct effective investigations into potential abuse
  • Implement must-have personnel policies to prevent FMLA abuse
  • Learn how to use the "honest belief" tool to protect your organization against misuse of FMLA and ADA leave
