Exiting Employees On A Disability Leave

The dust has settled post-pandemic and employees are out of sorts. Turnover is high across all industries as people regroup and sort through what they want out of their career.

We regularly hear about employees resisting commuting, moving on quicker than ever when the job gets difficult, and when regular feedback gets uncomfortable.

The increased turnover continues to uncomfortably intersect with disability leaves. Few questions were asked during the pandemic, when covid had such a broad and serious impact on peoples' ability to come to work with as little as a cough. Now, as employers increasingly look to update sick leave policies, bring people back to work, and clean up inconsistent practices after a chaotic era, we are frequently facing complex disability and employment law hybrid issues.
