MN Paid Leave Preparedness: Where Employers Should Be

With the vision of what MN Paid Leave will ultimately look like coming into focus, employers should be taking proactive steps to plan. In this session, we will discuss where employers should be at this point in preparing their organizations, including:

• Timeline
• Financial Analysis (State vs. Private)
• Employee/Stakeholder Communications
• Process and Policy Analysis

We hope to see you there!

She implemented several successful absence solutions, including harmonizing policy and practice, creating a formal ADA evaluation process, and integrating a leave management software solution. Brycie’s intimate knowledge of the challenges and successes, from the employer’s perspective, of maintaining and growing an effective absence and disability program while managing the ever-changing regulatory environment is something, she is passionate about sharing with her clients in her consulting role.
