On November 17, 2008, the U.S. Department of Labor issued new final regulations interpreting the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). Taking effect on January 16, 2009, the new regulations make a number of significant changes to the existing, original regulations that date back to 1995. Employers will have more latitude to obtain information from employees and health care providers, and will have new tools for preventing employee abuse of the FMLA. However, employers also will assume new obligations to inform employees of their rights and responsibilities. Join Thomas M. Wilde of Vedder Price P.C., who explains the key aspects of the new regulations and what changes employers need to make to their existing FMLA policies, forms and procedures to ensure compliance.
