Yes, the new FMLA regulations DO impact YOUR business!
On this month's NTI Committee call, Mark Sampson, Womble Carlyle Labor & Employment attorney presented the Legal Quickie on the new FMLA regulations. The overview on how the regulations impact all employers with at least 50 or more employees covered:
- New categories of leave for military caregivers and certain qualified exigencies
- Clarifications of what constitutes a serious health condition
- Substantial modifications to employee and employer notice obligations
- Major adjustments to the medical certification process
With these new regulations also comes an entirely new and/or revised set of notices and forms that employers will be required to use. The regulations contain significant revisions which address numerous issues that have plagued employers and employees alike since the initial regulations were published nearly fifteen years ago.
Share your insights and or questions about the new FMLA regulations here and Mark and others will participate in the dialogue.
