HOW FAR MUST EMPLOYERS GO TO ACCOMMODATE EMPLOYEE DISABILITIES?

In today's stressful environment, California employers find themselves faced with more employee illnesses, injuries and workplace stress claims. While many employers want to be sensitive to any employee in crisis, increasingly burdensome employment laws can hamper an employer's ability to maintain a productive workplace with absentee employees.

In this informative seminar, employment law attorney Karen L. Gabler will discuss the employer's obligations in handling employee disabilities. Topics covered will include the following:

Navigating the maze of state and federal disability laws
Recognizing covered disabilities
Documentation of medical issues
Conducting the interactive discussion and the "interactive log"
Reasonable accommodation of disabled employees
Counseling, discipline and termination of disabled employees
The interplay between statutory leave laws and reasonable accommodation
New cases on accommodating disability leaves
New laws on payment of insurance premiums during leaves
