As we recently reported to you at our 2013 Emerging Employment Law Seminar, the Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division issued a Final Rule which amends the Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”).  The Final Rule primarily impacts leave for military service members and became effective on March 8, 2013.  A new poster was published  in connection with the FMLA amendments, which employers must display by March 8, 2013.  Click here for the optional FMLA forms to reflect the changes made by the new regulations.     

Be sure to update your employee handbook and policies and procedures to reflect these recent changes.
