RECORDED TRAINING COURSE


Paid Family Leave as well as Paid Sick Leave has gained momentum in many States and localities. Many of these laws impose obligations well beyond those imposed by the federal Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). For those of you with employees in more than one State, the myriad of obligations increases exponentially—especially since the COVID pandemic. This webinar will provide an overview of those States that have passed Paid Family Leave and Paid Sick Leave laws and their key components. Do you offer paid family medical and/or leave to your employees? Currently, approximately 13 states, plus the District of Columbia, have passed Paid Family Medical Leave Laws Most states and over twenty localities have paid/earned sick/safe leave laws on their books - and that number is growing - so soon you may not have a choice. Now is the time to anticipate the changes that you might need to make to your existing policies to either comply with laws already in your jurisdiction or to get ahead of your obligations if paid sick and/or family medical leave does come to your jurisdiction.
