Free Legal Seminar to Address Connecticut Leave Laws

The next Amity Chamber "Breakfast & Briefs" legal seminar will be held on May 19th at Charter Senior Living of Orange, 197 Indian River Road, Orange. Doors open at 8:15 am, with the one-hour briefing starting promptly at 8:30 am. The program includes a free, catered breakfast, compliments of Charter Senior Living.

This month's briefing will cover Connecticut Leave Laws and will be presented by attorneys Owen Weaver and Courtney Georgeof Zabel Schellenberg Attorneys at Law. Specifically, the seminar will address employer obligations and compliance with three Connecticut Leave Laws dealing with medical and sick leave, including:

• CFMLA: Connecticut Family and Medical Leave Act
• CPL: CT Paid Leave
• CPSL: Paid Sick Leave

George notes, "Connecticut employers must navigate an alphabet soup of paid and unpaid sick/medical leave laws. While these statutes may sound the same, they provide different benefits and impose different requirements on covered employers." Attendees will leave the seminar equipped with the knowledge to:

• Distinguish between Connecticut’s paid and unpaid sick/medical leave laws
• Recognize and respond to requests for statutory sick/medical leave
• Implement best practices for administering statutory sick/medical leave
