Manage episode 489272963 series 2357087
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is one of the top topics SHRM gets member questions about in our HR Knowledge Center. So, host Monique Akanbi sits down with Liz Petersen and Sheri Martel, two FMLA experts within SHRM’s own ranks, to tackle the questions HR pros ask the most. Together, they break down key FMLA areas such as eligibility, intermittent leave, compliance, job restoration, and special circumstances.
Whether it's calculating requirements, managing leave patterns that suggest misuse, handling benefit coverage obligations, or navigating tricky return-to-work cases, their conversation delivers practical insights for approaching FMLA with confidence.
