Navigating and administering leaves of absence in California has never been easy. Employers have to first understand which statutory leaves apply to their workplace and then ensure that they not only have policies in place regarding those leaves but also administer those leaves properly. Often, various leave statutes, reasonable accommodation statutes, and partial wage-replacement statutes overlap in a given situation, making compliance with the law even more difficult.
Attorneys Ryan Abernethy and Meagan Bainbridge of Weintraub Tobin’s Labor and Employment Group provided a summary of the complex statutory scheme of leave and accommodation laws under federal and state law. They also provided some helpful insights and best practices for compliance, discussed who is eligible under what circumstances, and highlighted the particular rights and obligations of both employers and employees.
