Summary of Program
Employers continue to grapple with this very difficult area of employment law. It is not enough to focus on just one law when an employee is unable to work or is absent from the workplace due to some medical condition or injury suffered by the employee or his or her family member. Instead, employers need to understand and comply with how the courts, and various federal and state regulatory agencies, are interpreting the interplay between a number of laws like the FMLA/CFRA, ADA/FEHA, PDL, USERRA, and workers’ compensation. This seminar is designed to help employers and HR professionals understand this complex interplay and to provide some practical guidance on administering leaves and absences.

Program Highlights

• New Regulations and Agency Directives.
• What Does Each Law Provide: A Summary of the Statutes and Regulations.
• A Discussion of the Difference Between “Statutory Leaves” and “Wage
• Replacement Benefits.”
• Under What Circumstances the Statutory Leaves and/or Wage Replacement
• Benefits May Overlap and How to Evaluate and Determine the Employee’s
• Entitlements and the Employer’s Obligations Under Each Law.
• The Importance of Engaging in the “Interactive Process.”
• What are the Courts saying? Recent case law.
• Effective Documentation: Policies, Leave Administration Documents, and Medical Certifications.

Summary of Program

The risks involved in misclassifying a worker as an independent contractor rather than an employee have always been serious. A number of federal and state agencies regulate the proper classification of workers and have the authority to impose significant monetary and non-monetary sanctions against employers who get the classification wrong.

Program Highlights:

This informative webinar will cover the legal landscape of independent contractor status. Topics will include:

• A summary of the various tests applied by federal and state agencies to determine independent contractor status;
• A summary of the enforcement authority of various federal and state agencies and the sanctions they may impose on employers;
• The due diligence employers must engage in before classifying a worker as an independent contractor;
• The federal Department of Labor’s $25 million “Misclassification Initiative” designed to work closely with state agencies to investigate misclassifications and take enforcement action; and
• California’s law imposing monetary and non-monetary sanctions against employers (and certain individuals) who willfully misclassify workers as independent contractors.

If you or your company is currently using independent contractors, this is a webinar you cannot afford to miss. Register today!
