Certificate Program In FMLA, ADA, And PWFA Compliance ™
course-rating Rating: 4.89 - 400 reviews

Updated For The New "Pregnant Workers Fairness Act"

Every year, more than 1,000 FMLA suits are brought in federal court, and the average settlement is more than $500,000.

Additionally, nearly 30,000 disability discrimination claims were filed by employees with the EEOC in 2023 - the most ever - and now we have a new law that has to be integrated.

Is your organization properly administering these complicated laws? And, do you know how FMLA, ADA, and PWFA can all work together?

Not only will you learn the practical strategies and procedural recommendations that will enable you to tackle the challenging FMLA, ADA, and PWFA issues you confront every day, you'll also get FREE updates whenever FMLA, ADA, or PWFA laws change!
