Curbing FMLA Abuse: Should Employers "Like" Social Media?

Presented by:
Katherine L. Goyert, Sarah E. Flotte, Brian P. Paul

Social media both opens new avenues of this information and creates issues that employers must avoid. This session, led by Michael Best attorneys Kate Goyert, Sarah Flotte and Brian Paul will focus on identifying the opportunities and risks social media presents. It also will address best practices in FMLA abuse administration and new developments in the FMLA law.
