Have you updated your Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) policy and poster?  You should have.  New regulations that implement changes to the FMLA went into effect on March 8, 2013.  Covered employers need to take action now to ensure compliance with the new rules. 

A summary of the changes to the FMLA as well as a checklist for complying with the new regulations is available here.  Be sure to update your FMLA policies, poster, certification forms and notice of rights immediately.  In addition, ensure that your leave administrators, supervisors and human resources personnel are trained on the new rules.  FMLA compliance isn't hard, but it does take work!
