ADA and Beyond Compliance Considerations: Medical Documentation
2024-01-11 14:00 - 15:00 (America/New_York)
Description:
When an employer requests medical documentation pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), there is more to consider than just checking boxes off a list. Offering flexibility in the process by accepting alternative forms of medical information and documentation and focusing on functional limitations to support accommodation requests can help bridge the gap between what is technically allowable under the ADA and meeting the needs of employees with disabilities. This JAN training will include information about what the ADA requires with respect to medical inquiries, common scenarios when employers request medical documentation, and beyond compliance strategies for employers to consider when navigating the ADA accommodation process.
Presenters:

Lisa Mathess, Principal Consultant, ADA Specialist
Tracie DeFreitas, Program Leader, Director of Training and Outreach

How to Navigate the Remote and Flexible Job Market: Trends in 2024
2024-01-18 14:00 - 14:45
A choice of work environment and location is now a key factor for many job seekers when searching for a better work-life balance and evaluating new career opportunities. A recent FlexJobs survey found that 65% of respondents reported a desire to work remotely full-time, while 32% want a hybrid work environment. That’s an incredible 97% of workers who desire some form of remote work!
Ideally, people can balance their career and their personal life in a way that works best for their needs, and having a more flexible job typically helps with this. Are you interested in remote jobs and flexible work options, like being able to work from home, have a flexible schedule, find a professional-level part-time job, or work on freelance/contract projects? Can you continue to work remotely if you already are? Can your employer make you come into the office? This webinar will discuss the flexible job market, trends in 2024 to pay attention to, and how to position yourself for a remote or flexible job.
Our January webinar series, From Resolution to Reality: How to Make Your New Year’s Career Goals Happen, features these webinars:

New Year, New Job, New You: How to Achieve Your Career Goals in 2024
Ditch the Resolutions and Achieve Your Career Goals in 2024 with Beverly Jones
