Training Course Syllabus:

Two of the most important pieces of federal legislation affecting employers today are the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA). The FMLA, with its broad definition of medical conditions, generous leave provisions, and tricky administrative requirements, has the potential to create havoc for employers. The ADA's definition of disability and its regulations regarding reasonable accommodations for disabled employees have received significant attention from courts around the nation recently, resulting in an ever-changing environment in which employers must operate. This seminar will inform attendees about the essential fundamentals of both statutes, and will discuss practical steps employers can take to ensure compliance.
