FMLA, PFMLA, Earned Sick Time — Where to Begin with Leaves of Absence?

We’re used to employees taking time off for vacation or having a baby. But in addition to the many other things we’ve learned from our experience with the pandemic, we now know there are many, many new reasons for taking time away from work. 

Caring for family members, childcare closures, or maybe members of your team needing a mental health break due to burnout are all calls for time away. Even more complicated, our Massachusetts employers are also still adjusting to Paid Family and Medical Leave (PFML). If all of it is confusing to you, you’re not alone. 

This week, Tom Jones and Mary McNally join Pete Wright to break down LOAs and answer some of the most common questions we get from employers.

Each week we will showcase a bite-size conversation dedicated to helping you get your arms around another HR challenge. The people on this show have decades of experience, and this is our chance to share that knowledge with you.
