Employment law firm LightGabler is presenting a free employment law webinar, “The Weather's Great, Wish You Were Here--Handling Employee Absence, Use and Misuse of Paid Time Off and Related Disciplinary Issues.” The webinar is Wednesday, February 22 from 10:30 a.m. to noon.

Providing state-mandated sick leave, vacation or combined paid time off to employees is the easy part. Figuring out how to handle employees' use and misuse of that time is a far bigger challenge. What is an excused absence? When can you ask the employee to provide a doctor's note? How do you address excessive absenteeism without inviting a disability discrimination lawsuit?

In this webinar for employers, supervisors and human resource professionals, LightGabler employment law attorney Karen L. Gabler will discuss a variety of issues related to employees' use and abuse of paid time off policies and related legal risks for the employer.

Reservations are required. Attendance is limited to no more than two logins per company. Login instructions will be provided upon registration and again via email the day prior to the webinar. To register, go to https://www.lightgablerlaw.com/seminars.
