Managing leaves of absence can be complicated. Is paid family leave a protected leave of absence? Can an employee who calls in sick using their California paid sick leave just two minutes before their shift be penalized for lack of notice? If an employer is covered by both the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the California Family Rights Act (CFRA), will the two types of leave always run at the same time?
In CalChamber’s final Leaves of Absence virtual seminar for 2024 — held this Thursday and Friday, August 8 and 9 — our employment law experts will answer these questions, and a whole lot more.
For instance, if an employee has exhausted all their CFRA/FMLA leave, can they request additional time off as an accommodation? How does California’s reproductive loss leave interact with other leaves of absence?
To avoid penalties or costly litigation, it’s essential to understand all required leaves of absence, plus any overlapping California and federal legal requirements. In this year’s final seminar covering the ins and of California leaves of absence, our employment law experts will unravel both common and difficult-to-resolve leave administration challenges for you, including:
- Leave interaction;
- Discussion of both paid leave and unpaid leave;
- Eligibility requirements;
- Required notices;
- When employers must continue health benefits; and
- How an employee can receive wage replacement benefits while on leave.
