Leaves of Absence: When FMLA Is Not Enough

Description:

Navigating the landscape of employee leaves of absence can be a complex and challenging task for HR professionals and employers. While the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides essential protections, there are several situations where FMLA is not enough to address all leave-related issues.
