| Program Overview: | Malinger: intransitive verb; to pretend or exaggerate incapacity or illness (as to avoid duty or work) Although FMLA leave is unpaid, it is also protected. Among other things, this means that employees who take FMLA leave generally cannot be treated less favorably than other employees and that they must generally be returned to work when their leaves conclude. These protections can inevitably lead to abuse. In this advanced session, management-side employment lawyer Keith Kopplin will review some of the most-abused areas of the federal FMLA, providing strategies and tactics for managing those who malinger. |
| Learning Objective 1: | You will be able to recognize some of the common indications that FMLA is being abused. |
