FMLA & Leave Management Services That Eliminate Compliance Risk
FMLA violations cost employers an average of $80,000 per lawsuit. We handle the entire leave lifecycle — eligibility tracking, notice management, intermittent leave coordination, and return-to-work programs — so every leave is processed correctly and documented completely.
The Challenges You're Facing
Common problems we solve for businesses like yours.
You're tracking leave entitlements in spreadsheets, miscounting intermittent hours, and missing 12-month lookback calculations. One miscalculation can mean denying leave to an eligible employee — or granting it when they've exhausted their entitlement. Both create legal exposure.
Massachusetts PFML, Connecticut PFML, and a growing patchwork of state programs each have different eligibility rules, contribution rates, and coordination requirements with FMLA. If you operate across state lines, compliance is a moving target that most HR teams can't keep up with.
A manager denies a time-off request without realizing it qualifies as FMLA. Another approves intermittent leave without documentation. These uninformed decisions expose your business to retaliation claims and interference lawsuits — the two most common FMLA violations.
Employees come back from leave with no structured reintegration. Fitness-for-duty certifications aren't collected, accommodations aren't documented, and modified duty assignments happen informally. Every unstructured return is a potential ADA or FMLA violation.
