FMLA, one of the most complex laws HR must administer, just got more complicated. Are you up-to-speed on the latest changes?

Don’t get caught unprepared. Join us for this timely interactive webinar which will focus on recent regulatory changes—including the new military leave rules—and provide you with best practice compliance strategies in just 90 minutes.

The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA) is one of the most difficult laws for HR professionals to handle—particularly when employees take FMLA leave on an intermittent basis. And, it is not getting any easier.

New regulations went into place in 2009 that provide employers with new obligations and opportunities in administering their FMLA leave program.

Even if you know the FMLA basics, you can easily get stumped when it comes to the more complex situations such as determining what constitutes a serious medical condition under the FMLA and how intermittent leave laws apply in different situations.

Please join IOMA and employment law expert Brian McDermott of the law firm of Ogletree Deakins Wednesday, March 3rd at 2PM ET and you will learn:

• DOL’s rules clarifying how to determine what constitutes a serious medical condition under the FMLA
• DOL’s rules for what employers can require of employees requesting intermittent leave
• What you need to know about the new, expanded FMLA military leave rules
• The most common mistakes employers make—and how to avoid them
• What recent federal and state court decisions mean for you
• Notices and Certification requests: what documentation is required?
• HR’s options: strategies to minimize the impact on the workplace

Plus, get answers to your toughest questions in the LIVE Q&A session following the presentation—and you can invite your whole team for one low price! Your single paid registration entitles you to as many participants as you wish in a conference room setting.
