Bring your confusing FMLA cases to this FMLA Abuse Webinar Workshop!
Confusing regulations, along with numerous changes to the FMLA law, plus conflicting court decisions, cause FMLA to be one of the biggest compliance headaches for employers. A major FMLA frustration for employers is knowing what to do when an employee appears to be abusing FMLA; including fraudulently using approved leave for non-FMLA purposes. Many employers feel helpless.
|
|
|
It is crucial that employers identify and terminate FMLA abusers; however, employers must proceed with caution when dealing with FMLA abuse; as the cost of violating the law can be massive.
|
|
|
For instance, a fired Chase Manhattan Regional Manager won a federal jury verdict of more than $2.2 million in an employment discrimination suit alleging violation of the Family and Medical Leave Act.
Employees who abuse FMLA can create a negative impact on company’s productivity, cause problems with customer service and employee morale; as well as trigger increased costs via administration, overtime, covering shifts, etc. Some employers report experiencing as much as a 30% absenteeism rate, on any given day, due to FMLA abuse.
This webinar will assist employers with effective strategies to identify, investigate, and terminate FMLA abusers. Additionally, employers will learn when it is appropriate to deny FMLA requests.
