Metal illness is no longer the taboo subject it once was …
As more workers take leave for mental illness, more companies are taking notice. And they aren’t the only ones. Even the government has set up protection for employees under the ADA. As the number of cases of employees taking leave for mental illness goes up, so does the likelihood that violations and lawsuits will, too.
If you have even one employee on leave or requesting leave for mental illness, you don’t want to miss this exclusive training opportunity. You’ll learn the ins and outs of the ADA that pertain to mental illness leave. And you’ll protect your organization and your employees from a legal nightmare.
Learn what the ADA says you can and can’t do with mental illness leave.
If you think mental illness leave is just another version of FMLA, you could be in serious danger. The ADA is a specific form of protection for employees. This training will show you how FMLA and ADA work together … what ADA says you must do for employees upon their return to work … and how EAPs are changing the landscape of mental illness leave across the country.
With violations of mental illness leave on the rise (increasing some $2 million a year), you don’t want to miss this event. When one in five people is diagnosed with a mental illness, it’s not a matter of if you’ll have an employee on mental illness leave but when.
