A roadmap to FMLA compliance

FREE DOWNLOAD

Employers have had difficulty meeting the regulatory requirements of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) since it was passed in 1993. With so many eligibility requirements and procedural rules associated, compliance with the FMLA can be difficult for employers; as they must understand those requirements and apply them consistently.

Non-compliance can be costly

Employers who violate the FMLA can be subject to significant penalties, including back pay, front pay, fines, and other legal fees. According to the United States Department of Labor (DOL), in fiscal year 2022, the Wage and Hour Division investigated 780 FMLA complaints and recovered more than $870,000 in back wages for violations ranked most significant.
