    Doors open at 11:15
    Program begins at 11:40

    Participants will be refreshed on the employer’s legal obligations under the Family and Medical Leave Act, including: general leave requirements and leave entitlements.  Participants will also hear about the centralization of all medical leaves of absence for 14,000 employees and what we have learned during this project.  We will also provide examples of the most challenging cases at the University of Iowa.  

    Key Objectives:

    1. When has the employee “disclosed” a need for leave and how do we respond?

    2. What are the general leave requirements and leave entitlements under the FMLA?

    3. How do we manage medical documentation and how can we use this to balance the needs of the employee and the needs of the organization?

    HR functions addressed in this session will include: leave management, legal compliance, benefits, performance management, and workforce planning. 

    Participants will learn about the legal obligations an employer has under FMLA which will assist in keeping their organizations in legal compliance.  Additionally, participants will learn how to best create an inclusive and supportive environment for individuals who have health conditions and need to balance their work and health priorities.
