Executives from Rose & Kiernan, Inc. will be presenting at the PERMA 2018 Annual Member Conference. The event takes place May 24 – 25, 2018 at The Sagamore Hotel & Resort on Lake George, New York.
Speaking at this year’s conference will be Dan Colacino, vice president in Rose & Kiernan’s employee benefits management group (EBMG) and Shauna M. Waldin, PHR, SHRM-CP, director of compliance and wellness. The topic of their session will be New York State Paid Family Leave:
Effective on January 1, 2018, New York State private employers of all sizes were required to implement the State’s new Paid Family Leave Program (PFL). Public sector employers, although not mandated to provide a PFL benefit, can voluntarily opt into PFL under certain conditions. Not every requirement mirrors the requirements of private sector employers so it’s important to know how your organization is to proceed. This presentation will provide an overview of the final regulations and detail how employers will work in conjunction with their disability carriers to administer this policy. The PFL will also be reviewed alongside the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and existing leave policies, providing tips and tools for best-practice implementation.
Public Employer Risk Management Association, Inc. (PERMA) is a non-profit organization devoted to providing workers’ compensation protection and risk management services to public employers throughout New York State. The PERMA Annual Meeting is an opportunity for the organization to provide a wide range of educational opportunities designed to help their members mitigate risk and promote a safe workplace.
