HR 106 - Leaves, Disabilities & Reasonable Accommodation: Part 1 (2023)

Because of the complex nature of leaves, leaves administration, disabilities and reasonable accommodation at the federal and state level, the material is divided into 2 courses.  HR 106 reviews the aspects of 4 major leaves – Family Medical Leave Act, California Family Rights Act, California Pregnancy Leave, and Workers Compensation Leave.  Understanding which leave of absence applies to your organization is a critical compliance requirement.  Learn about events that could trigger a leave, which employees may be entitled to a leave, the parameters of a leave, and the obligations of the employer and employee. We will discuss various return-to-work scenarios and focus on best practice recommendations.  This course was updated in May 2023.
