Navigating employment laws like the ADA, FMLA, and Workers' Compensation is essential for ensuring compliance and supporting your workforce effectively. This Course simplifies complex regulations, providing managers and HR professionals with actionable insights to protect both their business and employees.

Did you know that an estimated 15–20% of the global population is neurodivergent?
That’s right—millions of potential employees think, learn, and interact with the world in ways that challenge the “typical” mold—and bring exceptional talents to the table because of it.

From, autism and ADHD to dyslexia and Tourette’s, neurodivergent conditions are more common than you think—and more misunderstood than they should be.

This comprehensive course addresses the complex challenges employers face in navigating the intricate web of leave laws, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), Workers' Compensation, and state-specific regulations. Participants will gain insights into legal compliance and best practices for handling the multifaceted landscape of employee leaves.

Course Objectives:

  • The legal basics (and nuances) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) as it relates to neurodivergence
  • Gain a comprehensive understanding of the ADA, FMLA, and Workers' Compensation laws and their impact on your business.
  • What actually counts as a disability (Hint: it’s broader than many people assume)
  • The spectrum of reasonable accommodations—and how to identify them before things escalate
  • Learn to identify legal triggers through real-world scenarios and ensure accurate documentation.
  • Explore the intersection of company benefits like PTO, sick time, and health insurance with legal obligations.
  • Discover tools and resources to enhance compliance and streamline HR processes.
  • Develop actionable strategies to support your workforce while maintaining legal and operational alignment.
  • Recent EEOC guidelines under the Pregnancy Discrimination Act
  • Proper handling of excessive absenteeism or tardiness.

  • Creating a Culture of Inclusion (Not Just Compliance): How to make space for different brains without reinventing the wheel—or alienating your team.
