ANOTHER Intermittent FMLA Request!
W216-218
In-Person and Virtual
Saturday 09/11/2021 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM
Competencies: Interpersonal (Behavioral), People (Technical), Workplace (Technical)
Workplace Application:
Attendees will learn how to respond to requests for intermittent FMLA leave.
It seems like we receive an FMLA request almost every day. Continuous leaves are, generally, simple to deal with and very straight-forward; it's hard to "fake" appendicitis. Managing intermittent FMLA leave, on the other hand, can be more difficult. This session is designed to help HR practitioners become more skilled in reviewing the tools we have at our disposal to remain compliant and minimize potential abuse of the system.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn to distinguish among the alphabet soup of leave programs.
- Learn to stay compliant and effectively manage intermittent FMLA leave.
- Ease your anxiety over intermittent leave requests.
- Obtain a checklist for intermittent leave management.
