REPEATED ON TUESDAY at 11:00amIt seems like we receive an FMLA request almost every day anymore. Continuous leaves are, generally, simple to deal with and very straight forward it's hard to 'fake' an appendicitis! Intermittent FMLA, on the other hand, is an automatic, cringe worthy event. This session is designed to help the HR Practitioner avoid the 'cringe' by reviewing the tools we have at our disposal to remain compliant AND minimize potential abuse of the system. The session covers the basics but is good for mid-level professionals as well - the more we are familiar with the regulations, the better we can apply them and minimize our organizations' exposure to abuse.

Learning Objectives: Compliant and effective management of intermittent FMLA. Ease practitioner's anxiety over intermittent requests.Best practices for risk reduction.Checklist for intermittent leave management.
