## LEAVE WITH CONFIDENCE

Practical Insight into the Evolving Leave Law Landscape for 2026 and Beyond

## Date and Time

Wednesday, March 4 | 10:00am PST

 

About The Event

Leave of absence compliance sits at the intersection of employment law, payroll, and day-to-day HR administration. As leave requirements continue to expand and evolve across the country, staying compliant has become increasingly challenging – particularly for employers with multistate workforces. This webinar takes a practical, employer-focused approach to leave management, emphasizing recent and upcoming changes across the country. We will also explore emerging trends, best practices, and operational considerations that impact how leave programs are administered in the real world. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of their compliance obligations, how to put these requirements into practice, and where risk most commonly arises.

## Topics Covered

1. Understanding the multistate paid family and medical leave (PFML) landscape and California’s leave requirements
2. Practical strategies for common leave compliance challenges
3. Regulatory and enforcement trends HR leaders should be watching
4. Best practices for leave administration and benefits coordination
5. How the right benefits partner can help you manage leave with confidence
