Description

In this episode of From Lawyer to Employer, Shipman partner Dan Schwartz is joined by Sarah Niemiroski to unpack one of the most discussed sessions from Shipman’s recent Labor & Employment Fall Seminar — Leave Laws.
Together, they break down the nuances of federal and Connecticut FMLA, paid sick leave, Connecticut Paid Leave, and the ADA, highlighting how these laws overlap and what employers need to do to stay compliant.

From defining “affinity relationships” to managing intermittent leave and coordinating benefits, Dan and Sarah offer practical takeaways to help HR professionals, in-house counsel, and business leaders navigate the increasingly complex leave landscape in Connecticut.
