Just when you thought dealing with overlapping FMLA, ADA, and workers' comp laws couldn't get any more confusing...

  • The DOL finalized changes to the Family Medical and Leave Act late last year, with key changes made to employee eligibility, notice requirements, leave for families of injured service members, and other key developments.
  • The recent ADA Amendments Act significantly broadened the definition of a "disability" and greatly expanded the number of employees who now qualify for ADA protection.
  • Workers' comp must now be re-evaluated to determine if work injury response programs and return-to-work policies comply with the new changes to ADA and FMLA.

Learn how to clear the confusing intersection of FMLA, ADA, and workers' comp by participating in the all-new extended audio conference, FMLA, ADA, and Workers' Comp Overlap: Overcoming New Compliance Conflicts.

In just 2.5 hours, a panel of experienced employment law attorneys will guide you through the complexities of this "treacherous triangle" and will provide straight answers to such questions as:

  • What are the key changes from the recently revamped Family and Medical Leave Act?
  • Now that the ADA Amendments Act is in effect, how many more employees now qualify for ADA protection?
  • How do the new ADA and FMLA changes impact workers' compensation?
  • What now constitutes a "serious health condition"?
  • How can I ask for medical certification without crossing into dangerous legal territory?
  • What's my first course of action if I suspect an employee is giving a false FMLA, ADA, or workers' comp story?
  • What are the most common workers' comp mistakes?
  • How can I minimize the administrative headaches associated with intermittent leave and reduced scheduled leave?
  • How can I train my supervisors to avoid litigation? What do the courts look for when determining liability?
  • What's the legally-safe way to discipline or terminate workers who are protected by the FMLA, ADA, or workers' comp laws?
  • What's my first step if an injury occurs in the workplace?
  • Does the EEOC have any new guidance to clarify overlapping leave laws?

FMLA, ADA, and Workers' Comp Overlap: Overcoming New Compliance Conflicts is just $297.
