Barclay Damon Live: Labor & Employment Podcast—"Managing Risk and Responsibility: The NYS Employer Handbook Series, Part 2"

Rosemary Enright and Mike Sciotti continue their discussion on employee handbooks, focusing on workplace accommodations and leave policies under New York State and federal law. Emphasizing that handbooks should serve both as employee education tools and as an employer’s first line of defense in litigation, they discuss the “big four” accommodations: disability, religion, domestic violence, and pregnancy. They also address leave policies, including New York Paid Sick and Safe Leave, New York Paid Family Leave, and the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). Listen in for more details around tailoring your policies, accommodations, and coordinating the various leave entitlement interactions.
