COVID-19 has made the largest impact on FMLA since 1993

Ocean City Chamber of Commerce invites you to join TASC on April 16, 2020 for a FREE one-hour virtual Town Hall to learn about the new EFMLEA (Emergency Family Medical Leave Expansion Act) that went into effect on April 1, 2020.

Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA)

The Family Medical Leave Act is a federal law that entitles eligible employees of covered employers to take unpaid, job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons with continuation of group health insurance coverage under the same terms and conditions as if the employee had not taken leave.

Expanded FMLA Requirements: The Families First Coronavirus Response Act (HR 6201), which expires on 12/31/2020, now requires that employers under 500 employees provide up to twelve (12) weeks of FMLA Paid Job-Protected Leave for “a qualifying need related to a public health emergency.”

Why you should attend: These changes to FMLA are federal law and could result in fines, penalties or lawsuits if not properly implemented and administered. Employers need to make changes now to avoid these penalties and fines.
