You Think you’ve got FMLA under control? Think again.

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is one of the most commonly mismanaged federal laws in the workplace. Why? Because it’s confusing, constantly evolving, and full of traps even seasoned HR pros and managers fall into.

It only takes one mistake to end up facing:
     · A Department of Labor investigation
     · An employee lawsuit for interference or retaliation
     · Thousands in back pay, fines, and legal fees
     · A shattered employee relationship you can’t repair

Here’s the problem:
     · FMLA eligibility rules keep changing.
     · Remote work has thrown old assumptions out the window.
     · Mental health and intermittent leave requests are skyrocketing.
     · Employees don’t always use the magic words “FMLA,” but you’re still on the hook.
     · Even “good intentions” can lead to illegal retaliation claims.

And the kicker? You’re responsible for knowing all this — and training your managers to get it right too. If you’ve ever…
     · Questioned whether an employee actually qualifies for leave
     · Wondered what counts as a “serious health condition”
     · Struggled with intermittent or remote workers abusing leave
     · Discovered paperwork wasn’t returned — and weren’t sure what to do
     · Been accused of retaliation just for enforcing policy

…then you’re already at risk.
