The coronavirus has wreaked havoc throughout the country, creating significant hardships on employees and employers alike. To provide some relief, Congress recently passed the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (“FFCRA”), which creates two new types of paid leave for employees: (1) Expanded Family and Medical Leave and (2) Emergency Paid Sick Leave. This webinar, presented by DiMuroGinsberg, P.C. attorney, Jonathan R. Mook, is designed to assist you in understanding the new paid leave requirements and to answer such questions as: (1) What municipalities are covered by the FFCRA? (2) Who is eligible for leave? (3) What are the qualifying reasons for leave? (4) What are the new paid leave entitlements? (5) How will the FFCRA be enforced? And (6) What notice must you provide your workforce? Please join us for this timely and informative webinar.
