Would you know what to do?
An employee asks for time off for in vitro fertilization treatments. Another needs leave because of gestational diabetes. A third requests a workplace accommodation related to pregnancy.
Which law applies? The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), or all three?
For HR professionals, determining the right response is not always straightforward. These laws can overlap, fill gaps for one another, and create obligations employers may not immediately recognize.
Join us for this practical webcast and learn how to:
- Spot employee requests that trigger employer obligations, even when employees do not use legal terminology.
- Understand where the PWFA, ADA, and FMLA intersect, where they differ, and how they work together.
- Navigate complex accommodation and leave requests with confidence.
- Improve communication, avoid common compliance mistakes, and make informed decisions.
Don't wait until a difficult situation lands on your desk. Get the guidance you need to respond correctly and confidently.
We’ll save time at the end for your questions!
