FEEDBACK |
from "Stop FMLA Intermittent Leave Abuse Now," May 24, 2006
"Steve was very
willing to clarify points of the FMLA and seemed to be very knowledgeable.
His personal experience of companies he has worked with was helpful to
me."
Carolyn Livingston, Lander Valley Medical Center
"Insightful info
into what emplrs can and should do re: FMLA - instead of being afraid."
Laurie Merritt, Time Warner Cable
"This is the
first conference I've "attended" that focused solely on intermittent
FMLA which was very helpful. I also felt the presenter was more focused
on employer rights rather than leniency with the employee, which was refreshing
to me."
Betty Campbell, St Cloud Hospital
"I would say the content is extremely helpful. It gives the company the opportunity to explore different options to control the abuse of Intermittent FMLA without penalizing other employee's who are on FMLA" Jan Tuton, John Crane, Inc.
"Consise and
to the point. It also gave a lot of good recommendations."
Margarita Jakobson, Consumer Credit Counseling Service of San Francisco
