Unpacking the Families First Coronavirus Response Act for Employers

On-Demand Recording

90 minutes | INSTRUCTOR-LED TRAINING

Complying with the new Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) is challenging because so much of the new law is long on legal mandates and what employers must do, but short on the details of how to do it. Employers are left confused and not sure where to start.

Our 75-minute workshop provides up-to-date guidance on how to interpret what the Paid Sick Leave and expanded Family Medical Leave provisions of the FFCRA actually mean; and what employers need to do now to comply with the new mandates.

We'll address:

  • How (and when) paid sick leave and expanded FMLA benefits laws interact
  • Calculating paid sick leave for your part-time workers
  • What if an employee refuses to come to work out of fear COVID-19 exposure?
  • How overtime hours factor into calculating wages for paid sick leave or FMLA
  • What are the penalties for not complying with the FFCRA?
  • How intermittent leave under traditional FMLA factors into the FFCRA
  • Bonus Handout - 6 QUALIFYING REASONS FOR PAID SICK LEAVE
