Attending this training is a must for the majority of Oregon employers and their management staff. If you are a manager working for an employer with 6 or more employees in Oregon, the Other Victims of Certain Crimes Leave Act of 2007 (OVCCLA) affects you. It requires you to allow employees to take “reasonable” leave to address issues unique to crime victims. This new leave law will influence how employers administer company leave programs. The leave is complex and is often interrelated to the Oregon Family Leave Act (OFLA) and the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). This leave could also interface with injured worker and disability laws. Without proper training, managers can land in legal minefields, even when operating with good intentions. During this three-hour training session the speaker focuses on the legal requirements of each law, explains how they interrelate, and shows you how to see the "big leave picture" when considering a leave request.
