Course Overview

Navigating employee leave policies under the ADA, FMLA, and Worker’s Compensation laws can be challenging for employers. While these laws offer employees essential rights, they can also be exploited by workers who might misuse leave provisions. What happens when you suspect an employee is abusing their benefits, such as taking intermittent FMLA to go on vacation or participating in an activity like skiing?

This CPE course will equip you with the knowledge and strategies to identify and address potential fraud while ensuring compliance with employee rights. During this course, we will cover essential steps in investigating suspected abuse of ADA, FMLA, and Worker’s Compensation leave. You’ll learn how to gather evidence, the importance of keeping job descriptions up to date, and why consistent call-in procedures are vital in preventing abuse.

Major Topics Covered:

  • ADA leave eligibility requirements
  • Managing FMLA leave abuse
  • Worker’s Comp fraud detection
  • Importance of job descriptions
  • Investigating leave fraud effectively

Join us to ensure you can protect your company while adhering to legal guidelines. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to strengthen your approach to HR investigations.
