Webinar On FMLA Abuse: How To Identify, Investigate, Deny, And Terminate

This webinar will assist employers with effective strategies to identify, investigate, and terminate FMLA abusers. Employers will also learn when it is appropriate to deny FMLA requests.

Confusing regulations, along with numerous changes to the FMLA law, as well as, conflicting court decisions, cause FMLA to be one of the biggest compliance headaches for employers. A major FMLA frustration for employers is knowing what to do when an employee appears to be abusing FMLA and fraudulently using approved leave for non-FMLA purposes. Many employers feel helpless.

It is crucial that employers identify and terminate FMLA abusers; however, employers must proceed with caution when dealing with FMLA abuse; as the cost of violating the law can be massive. For instance, a fired Chase Manhattan Regional Manager won a federal jury verdict of more than $2.2 million in an employment discrimination suit alleging violation of the Family and Medical Leave Act.

Additionally, employees that abuse FMLA create a negative impact on company productivity, cause problems with customer service and employee morale; as well as increased costs via administration, overtime, covering shifts, etc. Some employers report experiencing as much as a 30% absenteeism rate, on any given day, due to FMLA abuse.
