Description 

Navigating and complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) can be challenging on its own. When the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) or Workers’ Compensation laws are also involved, it’s understandable that confusion may arise about how these laws interact.

There are several common misconceptions regarding the ADA, FMLA, and Workers’ Compensation, such as:

ADA: Some believe the ADA is often misused by individuals with vague or unsubstantiated claims. However, the ADA mandates that employers provide reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities unless it causes undue hardship.

FMLA: It’s a common misconception that employees must formally request FMLA leave. Some also think that employers can deny intermittent or reducedschedule leave if it disrupts business operations. In reality, the FMLA allows employees to take time off for serious health conditions or family reasons.

Workers’ Compensation: Some assume that workers' compensation benefits are only available if the employer or a third party is at fault, or that it only covers physical injuries. However, workers' compensation also supports employees dealing with psychological conditions and provides compensation for lost wages and medical treatment related to workrelated injuries.

This training will help you better understand how to navigate these regulations and avoid the potential legal pitfalls they present.

Topics Covered:

  • Key differences between the requirements of the FMLA, ADA, and Workers' Compensation
  • How the interactive process for reasonable accommodation can help with ADA compliance
