5-49 In-Depth Leave Interaction

We’ve Got You Covered!
Leave requirements depend on employer size:

CFRA – CA Family Rights Act (5+)
PDL – CA Pregnancy Disability Act (5+)
WC – CA Workers’ Comp (1+)

Let the TPO Experts Unravel the Mysteries of What These Acronyms Mean.
Managing these complicated State & Federal leave laws and figuring out the integration between them is a challenge! It is no secret that these laws were not written for simplicity or ease of administration. In fact, there are numerous opportunities to fumble…whether you miss an important notification requirement, stop benefits short of legal requirements, or fail to offer the amount of leave allowed.
Learn how to distinguish the difference between, 1) the amount of time off, 2) the money the employee receives, and 3) the duration insurance premium payments are continued.

Manage leaves with confidence!
TPO’s Leave Interaction Compliance Workshops will explain the pieces and help you develop a system to cope with the overlaps and differences so you can manage leaves with confidence.

Review regulatory requirements and implications (in easy-to-understand terms!)
Visually walk-through statute interaction with common scenarios
Address the aspects employers find most confusing
Discuss practical solutions for managing leaves throughout their duration

Hire, Engage, & Retain Your Best
2026-10-15 09:00 - 10:00
… It Takes a Strategic Approach!
Attracting talent is only the beginning. Keeping your best requires intention, leadership, and a clear understanding of what truly drives engagement and retention in today’s workforce.
In this practical, one-hour session, participants will learn how to hire with purpose, engage beyond compensation, and retain employees through strong leadership practices. Drawing from TPO’s proven methods, this program explores how focusing on Abilities, Interests, and Manageability (AIM) helps employers attract the right candidates—and how emerging leaders can create a culture that fuels long-term commitment and “staying power.”

• Learn how to attract stronger candidates with targeted, well-crafted job advertisements
• Understand how to differentiate your organization through meaningful engagement—not just pay
• Explore why training managers as emerging leaders is critical to retention
• Review a simple 4-step model to help keep your best employees
• Learn how and when to use a Stay Interview framework to get ahead of unwanted turnover
Audience: Supervisors / Managers / HR
Walk away with practical strategies to hire smarter, engage intentionally, and retain your best—confidently and consistently.

This session walks through the do’s and don’ts of employment separations—before, during, and after the conversation—so exits are managed consistently, respectfully, and with reduced risk. Participants will gain a practical, high-level overview of the full separation landscape, helping supervisors, managers, and HR professionals understand what’s required, what’s recommended, and what to avoid when employment ends.
During this 1-Hour program, you will:
• Identify the different types of employment separations, including voluntary, involuntary, retirement, and job abandonment
• Understand key legal considerations related to final pay, notice requirements, at-will employment, and documentation
• Review best practices for employee relations, including termination checklists and respectful communication
• Learn how to manage company property, system access, passwords, and confidential information at separation
• Explore do’s and don’ts related to references, recommendation requests, and reference checks
• Recognize common risk areas and missteps that can lead to claims or disputes

At least 2 hours of training:

TPO’s interactive training program goes beyond the topic of sexual harassment to address all forms of unlawful harassment, discrimination, and retaliation in the workplace (age, race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, etc.) in the workplace.
Our TPO Experts keep it relevant by including hypothetical situations, real-life examples, real-time discussions, reference materials, and acknowledgment forms to sign for personnel files.
TPO has trained over 10,000 managers, supervisors, and employees on the prevention of harassment and discrimination.
