Whatever your experience\, have you ever had that moment when you ask yourself “What leaves does this employee get?” Local Educational Agencies are required to apply Federal\, State and Educational Leaves. In addition to the leave laws like PDL\, FMLA and CFRA\, agencies must also consider leaves under accommodation laws such as ADA and PWFA. Sometimes it’s straight forward but more often than not it feels like you are in a wild environment where some wild vine or weird creature is going to grab or snag you and pull you under. Don’t be afraid we are here to help you with those wild leave questions. Join us for an interactive discussion where we explore the different kinds of employee leave and how to coordinate them based upon real life scenarios. \nKey Takeaways:\n• Identify the appropriate leaves and interconnection of paid and unpaid leaves and other accommodation laws with each other\n• Learn how certain leaves are inter-related and strategies for navigating and coordinating employee leaves\n• Other helpful written resources
