Earlier this year, President Obama granted federal employees six weeks of paid leave following the birth of a child. And paid leave legislation continues to emerge nationwide. As the family-friendly paid leave movement gains momentum, employers must be aware of their current and potential obligations and develop a framework for helping employees meet the growing demands of their busy lives.
Speaking at the 20th Annual Advanced Employment Issues Symposium in Las Vegas, McAfee & Taft labor and employment lawyer Charlie Plumb guides employers through the steps for implementing well-balanced family-friendly policies, including paid leave and workplace flexibility programs that meet current legal requirements and foster a culture of productivity and satisfaction among the workforce. Specific topics include:
- How multistate employers are mastering leave tracking and administration under new paid leave requirements
- The link between generous paid leave programs and retention
- Tips for crafting flexible work arrangements that get the job done
- Legal hurdles that arise from family friendly-based initiatives
- The relationship family-friendly policies, including generous leave policies, have on productivity and satisfaction
Presented by BLR – Business and Legal Resources, the Advanced Employment Issues Symposium is a national conference that brings in prestigious employment law attorneys who advise on critical legal compliance and also HR professionals discussing strategy essentials, including compensation and benefits.
