Video
FMLA for Supervisors
FORMAT: DVD
LENGTH: 25 minutes
AUDIENCE: All supervisors
Because supervisors often act as an intermediary between Human Resources and employees who are absent for a possible Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) qualifying reason, it is important for supervisors to understand their responsibilities and how to work with Human Resources.
The video covers which employees are eligible for FMLA leave, what is considered a qualifying reason, military family leave, intermittent and reduced schedule leave, which questions are appropriate to ask an employee who is requesting leave and various scenarios that help supervisors better perform their role in FMLA real-life situations.
