Human Resource professionals regularly cite FMLA (Family and Medical Leave Act) administration as one of the most frustrating parts of their job. Throw in ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) for good measure and you end up with one nasty headache. FMLA Insights blog author and labor and employment attorney, Jeff Nowak, will take us through some of the most difficult FMLA and ADA compliance issues and offer practical steps employers can take to maximize compliance and minimize the headaches.

Key Messages from this Webinar include:
Recognizing an employee’s need for FMLA leave. Is a text message good enough?
Whether an employer should designate FMLA leave on occasions when an employee does not want FMLA to apply.
Investigating employee conduct after social media posts show them acting inconsistently with their need for FMLA leave.
The latest on managing FMLA intermittent leave, seeking recertification, and the value of second opinions.
The ageold question: Leave as an ADA reasonable accommodation – when is enough plenty?
