Time off for a headache?  Intermittent leave for arthritis?  More so than ever, employees are requesting accommodations in the workplace for what arguably may be disabilities under the Americans With Disabilities Act.  This presentation will focus on what is and is not a disability under the ADA, comparing the ADA with the Family Medical Leave Act, and providing best practices and recommended policies to help handle the ADA’s required “interactive process” that employers must engage in when an employee requests an accommodation.  Professionals will also learn the dangers that can be caused  by failing to document the interactive process, and best practices to limit liability when things don’t go as planned. 

Agenda:

  • Summary of Current ADA laws
  • Comparing and Contrasting ADA and FMLA 
  • Understanding importance of interactive process
  • Effective use of interactive process and identifying best practices and policies
  • Hypothetical situations with examples
  • Question and Answer

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
I felt that this was geared more toward legal folks or compliance officers. Hard to understand for regular HR or Benefits professional or layperson. Needed some legal-speak terms defined. Got lost in some of that.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
The information included was good but it felt like the presenter was reading the slides verbatim and didn't go into detail into all of the topics (like how to use / mitigate usage of SNS in recruiting), it was very heavy on lawsuits.

I am very pleased with the Aurora training webinars. There isn't time to be running around going to training seminars and the fact they cost way too much. I would recommend Aurora to anyone that is looking to moving forward with training pertaining to their career.
