Product Description
In Massachusetts, employees are eligible for paid and unpaid leave for a range of situations, benefiting from the protection of a myriad of state and federal laws. These include the Massachusetts Paid Family Leave and Medical Leave Act (PFML), Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), Massachusetts Earned Sick Time, Domestic Violence Leave Act (DVLA), and the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA), among others. Often, these leave laws intersect with each other, creating many questions for employers and employees. Learn about the contours of each law and their intersection, as well as their interplay with employers’ private plans and policies. The panelists analyze hypotheticals to highlight the practical nuances seen in the workplace. -
