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

The hour and a half time length for webinars by Aurora is honestly a lot. I think it would be better to have a break somewhere in the middle. It might even be worth making webinars two hours with a couple of short breaks in between. I also think that there isn't a lot of time for Q&A at the end. There are always a lot of unanswered/unasked questions from the chat box. Finally, it would be kind of nice to see presenters faces to humanize them and create a sense of connectedness between those hosting/presenting and those of us attending.
