Course Description
Absence due to illness has changed the landscape in dealing with federal workplace issues. Problems arise when employees are absent – let alone the huge amounts of leave entitlements tied to family member medical conditions.
Administering sick leave can be complicated, and proper documentation is critical. The Family & Medical Leave Act adds an additional layer of complexity to these illness-related absences. When can you require medical examinations? When can you take action on excessive absences?
If you need more information on absence related to illness so you are able to answer those tough questions on sick leave and FMLA – or if you want to ensure that the adverse action case you assemble will withstand the scrutiny of the MSPB – then this webinar series is custom-made for you.
While the near future of the Merit Systems Protection Board remains uncertain, FELTG is staying on top of the situation and will provide attendees with the most up-to-date information they need to know.
Instructors Deborah Hopkins, William Wiley, and Barbara Haga will guide you through these thorny issues. Register for any or all of the sessions.

Course Description
If one of your employees had a behavioral health crisis in the workplace, would you know what to do? This isn’t a far-fetched scenario. One in six workers are experiencing mental health problems at any time, according to recent studies. Crisis management in the federal workplace is a critical area to understand – it is truly life and death. And with the current COVID-19 global pandemic, uncertainty about the world – combined with social isolation – has more people struggling than ever before.
This 90-minute webinar, led by Licensed Clinical Social Worker Shana Palmieri, will provide you with an understanding of mental and behavioral health conditions and the impact they have on the individual, as well as strategies to effectively provide supervision and management to ensure a productive workplace. Learn to walk that tenuous line between providing accommodations and support for a mental health condition and holding employees accountable for their work performance.
Attendees will leave this webinar with strategies to:
- Improve performance and success for employees with mental health conditions.
- Effectively accommodate employees with behavioral health conditions.
- Set appropriate boundaries and expectations in the workplace.
This class focuses on the practical and clinical side of managing employees with behavioral health conditions, rather than the legal side. You won’t want to miss it.
