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?
The presenter was going extremely fast and many of the slides were just quickly read. I couldn't follow half of what she was saying and many of the slides had these blank white boxes on them during the presentation. Perhaps that was missing critical information that would have been helpful to understanding the content.

Too much reading of material rather than discussion of what outside activities were ok to discipline on. Too many slides less discussion. Best was end with questions and answers.

It would have been helpful if the determination of action was specified as it related to some examples as opposed to presenting just the behavior.
