Getting injured employees back to work with an acceptable job offer can be tricky. Agencies have to meld requirements under the Federal Employees Compensation Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act. But even 100% compliance with one law doesn’t guarantee compliance with the other.

Rely on federal employment experts from two distinct backgrounds — workers’ comp and EEO — to give you the complete picture of how FECA and the ADA interact. In just 90 minutes, you learn your agency’s obligations and options under the two laws, along with their similarities and key differences.

And, you find out exactly what you need to do to get your employees back to work, including how to make an acceptable return-to-work offer, the steps to providing reasonable accommodation and, most importantly, how to coordinate the two actions.

Meet your requirements under both FECA and the ADA by understanding:

• The importance of all parties communicating and coordinating efforts to return an employee to work
• Differences in how the OWCP and EEOC define “disability”
• What constitutes “reasonable accommodation” under the ADA and a “suitable employment offer” under FECA
• How to obtain and use medical information without violating ADA prohibitions
• Employees’ duty to cooperate and the consequences when they don’t
• And more!
