Learning Objective

  • To recognize and analyze the interaction of the ADA, FMLA, and Workers' Compensation Laws.
  • To identify the purposes of the three laws and why they often conflict.
  • To know the areas of interplay between the three laws that employers need to consider when managing employee absenteeism.
  • To describe and analyze a situation in which the three laws interact.

Course Overview

The Family Medical Leave Act the Americans with Disabilities Amendment Act, and Workers' Compensation are often called the Bermuda Triangle of Employment Law. These three laws often conflict and leave Human Resources Professionals scratching their heads and wondering how to deal with the maze of regulations. We call it a Triple Whammy, as such cases are very complicated to understand and deal with correctly.

The Triple Whammy of Dealing with FMLA, ADAAA, and Workers' Compensation is an absolute must for all supervisors as well as human resources staff. 

Violations of these laws can result in back pay, front pay, and liquidated damages, often, resulting in multi-million dollar judgments against the company. Since we live in a very litigious world, and plaintiff attorneys are looking to pounce on the mistakes the employers make, you MUST know the rights and responsibilities of both the employer and the employee to keep you and your company out of court. Ignorance is not a defense, AND supervisors and managers have been held personally liable for violations of FMLA. Conflicts between these laws add to the complexity of trying to comply.

This online continuing education Business Law course will help the attendees understand the interplay of these laws to ensure compliance with the rules and regulations. HR professionals must help protect the company from potentially expensive lawsuits and settlements.

Key topics covered in this CPE course:

  • Overview of the Family and Medical Leave Act
  • Overview of the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendment Act
  • Analysis of Workers' Compensation Laws
  • Areas of Conflict among these laws
  • Conducting an Analysis Before Taking Action
  • Case Studies
