Inhaltsangabe

f there’s one law every supervisor in the U.S. must be familiar with, it’s the Family and Medical Leave Act. The FMLA helps employees cope when a personal or family crisis impacts work. But for bosses, the law is confusing and often risky, because it’s not just companies that are liable for FMLA violations—individual managers can be held responsible too! The Essentail Guide to Family & Medical Leave takes the fear out of employee requests for family and medical leave. Written by two experienced employment attorneys, this book guides readers step-by-step through the entire FMLA process, providing smart answers to all the big questions, including: • Who qualifies for FMLA leave? • What are a company’s obligations to an employee on leave? • What can companies do to minimize disruptions when an employee takes leave? This user-friendly guide comes complete with illustrative comparison charts, flow charts, forms, and checklists. Plus, each chapter highlights the most common issues managers face. Other FMLA books are overly legal (nearly as complex as the legislation itself), or too simplistic (dodging the tough issues). The Essential Guide to Family & Medical Leave is thorough, legally sound, and easy-to-use. It provides everything busy managers, supervisors and HR pros need to run a family-friendly workplace.
