Top 10 Mission Critical HR Compliance Mistakes (FMLA, FLSA, ADA and more)

Course Description:

Employment lawsuits are at the highest peak in history, with nearly 100,000 claims filed in 2010, according to the EEOC. That’s a whopping 31 percent increase from just 4 years ago!

Complex regulations, increased enforcement and the never-ending flow of new court cases and decisions that change the employment landscape are making it extremely difficult for employers to stay ahead of the curve.

Course Highlights:

In this can’t miss HR compliance audio conference, our expert faculty will discuss how to avoid the 10 most common compliance mistakes made by HR managers and organizations. They’ll also cover those costly “gotchas” related to the FMLA, FLSA, and ADA, including:

• FLSA employee classifications, exemptions, and overtime mistakes
• Errors in response to FMLA leave, and intermittent leave requests
• Confusion surround FMLA leave and ADA accommodation
• ADA definitions of "disability", and snafus surrounding reasonable accommodation
• Common mistakes when it comes to leaves of absence
• And so much more!
  

You’ll also get answers to your specific compliance questions, in the live question and answer session at the close of the seminar.
