Stop FMLA Intermittent Leave Abuse Now!

Duration: 90 minutes

Most cases of FMLA intermittent leave are legitimate and help employees manage difficult medical situations.

But it’s no secret that some workers exploit the complexity of the Family and Medical Leave Act, taking advantage of employers who fear they’ll end up in court if they try to stop abuse.

When an employer fails to confront the abuser because of a fear of being sued, the rest of the team’s productivity and morale pay heavy consequences.

Don’t let it happen to you. Take control of intermittent FMLA leave abuse now. FMLA regulations provide employers with mechanisms to curb the abuse of intermittent FMLA leave. But you must understand the law and know how to use it to your advantage.

In this webinar, attorney Linda Hollinshead of Duane Morris LLP, will show you how to attack this problem with confidence, rein in abuses, and prevent FMLA malingerers from hurting your company’s bottom line.
