Barclay Damon Live: Labor & Employment Podcast—"Medical Plan Coverage During a Leave of Absence," With Art Marrapese

In episode 57 of Barclay Damon Live: Labor & Employment Podcast, host Ari Kwiatkowski welcomes her Barclay Damon colleague Art Marrapese to discuss medical plan coverage during a leave of absence from work. Tune in to hear a breakdown of the types of leaves employees can take under federal and state laws like the Family Medical Leave Act and the New York Paid Family Leave, where ERISA comes in, and some of the circumstances around protected and non-protected leaves, especially around health coverage issues. Art and Ari emphasize that employers can stay ahead of the game by having their plan documents and summary plan descriptions well organized so that employees know their rights. They also dig into COBRA rules and more, so listen in.
