Description
For those who work in HR, does the thought of managing another employee on workers’ compensation leave make you want to take your own leave of absence? It shouldn’t be that way. Every employer needs a systemized approach, structured under state and federal employment law. This roundtable will review your legal obligations and best strategies for administering workers’ compensation leaves. Topics include: - Navigating state and federal leave laws - Proper initial response and communications with employee - Medical certifications - Dealing with uncooperative employees - Managing prolonged absences - What to do about bogus claims - Avoiding or defending against retaliation claims - Reinstatement and termination options.
