ADA & FMLA: Navigate the Intersection of Disability and Leave Laws After Recent Legal Developments

ADA & FMLA Webinar Recording

It’s been a big year for disability and family leave laws. The ADA Amendments Act and the sweeping changes to the FMLA both took effect this past January.

Now that the legislative and regulatory dust has settled, employers are left not knowing which way to turn when employees are covered under both the ADA and FMLA. The road toward compliance is a confusing maze even if you do your best to be properly prepared.

Order this in-depth, 90-minute webinar recording all about this complex issue. Our experts–two experienced employment attorneys–will explain when overlapping and/or distinct employer obligations and employee protections may arise now that the ADAAA and the FMLA changes are in effect.

You and your colleagues will learn:

  • The serious health conditions covered under FMLA that likely constitute a disability under the ADA–and those that don’t
  • The ADA confidentiality standard applicable to records acquired under the FMLA
  • When a worker who has exhausted FMLA leave may be entitled to more than 12 weeks of unpaid leave as a reasonable accommodation under the ADA
  • The reinstatement rights employees are entitled to under the ADA and FMLA
  • Whether you can discipline or terminate workers when the adverse employment actions would only be allowed under one of the statutes
  • Best practices for ensuring compliance when employees have rights under both statutes

This webinar was recorded on Tuesday, October 6, 2009
