Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) Whitepaper

On April 1, 2020, the U.S. Department of Labor announced new action regarding how American employers and employees will benefit from the protections and relief offered by the Emergency Paid Sick Leave Act and Emergency Family and Medical Leave Expansion Act, both part of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA). Unfortunately, employers are faced with a dizzying array of options that could result in confusion and unnecessary risks if handled incorrectly.

E. Cohen’s FFCRA experts, Alisa Raney and Liz Fuentes, have authored a useful whitepaper on the various benefit options available to employers and employees who may be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

In this easy-to-follow guide you will get answers to questions like:

• Which employees are eligible?
• How are impacted employees paid?
• How might the FFRCA overlap existing employee benefits?
• What businesses may be exempt from the FFCRA?
