Leaves of Absence And Time Off From Work Manual - 9th Edition

California and federal laws create numerous statutory rules that provide employees the right to leaves of absence. The evolution of these laws has dramatically eroded the freedom employers formerly had to grant or deny time off requests. In many cases, several laws may provide an employee overlapping protections through a complicated system of rules. In this new publication, Richard J. Simmons examines the key statutory rules and obligations they create. Among the numerous topics addressed in the publication are legal obligations, federal laws, state laws, family and medical leaves, alcohol and drug rehabilitation, crime victims leaves, qualifying events, parental obligations, voting time off, sample forms, worker's compensation leaves, domestic violence leaves, firefighter leaves, military leaves, posting rules, required policies, leaves required by the ADA and FEHA, pregnancy leaves, Family School Partnership Act, and checklists for reviewing leave requests.
