In this training, you’ll learn the basics of FMLA and how to handle the daily processes. Protect your employer by keeping the rules and supporting your employees. Many companies struggle with FMLA–following the rules actually makes it easier!
FMLA mistakes can cost big bucks and prevent your employees from getting the time and support they need to recover from illness or injury, bond with a baby, or take care of a loved one.
If you struggle setting boundaries with your employees on intermittent FMLA this will help you understand the limitations and benefits to you and your employees.
