The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is one of the greatest statutes passed. In fact, before the FMLA, the United States was one of the most industrialized countries that had no leave protection for serious health conditions. While most employees do not abuse the leave entitlement, there are always those employees who want to abuse the system. It can be tempting to ignore this fact – after all, aren’t these employees facing the situation when they run out of FMLA? Employers with this approach will find that they lose their good employees because they are frustrated that they are working while someone is abusing the system. Attend this webinar to learn how to handle those employees who abuse their FMLA rights.
