FMLASource Announces New ADA Solution for Employers

FMLASource^® Inc., a ComPsych^® company, announced today a new service to help employers comply with leave requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The service combines administration of Family and Medical Leave Act absences with ADA leave compliance, managing the complex requirements of each. ComPsych Corporation is the world's largest provider of employee assistance programs and is the pioneer and leading provider of fully integrated EAP, behavioral health, wellness, work-life, HR and FMLA administration services under the GuidanceResources brand.

"There have been record-setting settlements against employers who have failed to perform 'individualized analysis' on ADA leave requests, as the EEOC has increased legal action against non-compliant employers in recent years," said Jim Brown, senior vice president of FMLASource. "Our solution uses an expert-guided process to help employers make sound decisions on ADA leaves, while also handling the complexities of FMLA leave."

The ADA solution of FMLASource includes:

• Clear, documented processes for following EEOC and ADA requirements
• Proactive identification of FMLA absences and other applicable leaves that may require ADA analysis
• Collaborative, guided process to help the employer make compliant decisions
• Secure recording and tracking of all employee requests and individual leaves
• Standard ADA-compliant communications
• Utilization reports of employees on leave, frequency of leaves and status updates

To attend a complimentary webinar June 12 at noon CDT (News - Alert), "New Approaches for FMLA and ADA Compliance," send an e-mail to [email protected].

FMLASource is a service that reviews, approves, processes and tracks leave requests with the oversight of expert legal staff, helping organizations reduce the amount of absences while complying with the complexities of the act.
