Learn how the new proposed regulations will affect how your institution administers FMLA and what the future holds
On February 11, 2008 the Department of Labor released its long-awaited proposed regulations concerning how FMLA is to be administered. This proposal contains a number of proposed changes that could impact how your financial institution administers FMLA leave. The proposed changes will create new opportunities and responsibilities for HR professionals to influence and monitor the use of mandated leave.
Join this interactive audio conference as our labor and employment expert covers the following key elements of the new proposed regulations:
- The definition of a “serious health condition”
- Problematic employer and employee notice requirements contained in the current regulations
- Changes to ensure the medical certification process is more manageable when an employee requests FMLA
- Employers’ concerns regarding the interplay of FMLA leave and perfect attendance awards
- Improvement of the return-to-work process and the employer’s ability to obtain assurances that an employee is fit for duty
- Substitution of paid leave and an employer’s ability to enforce the terms and conditions of your paid leave policies
- And more!
