In this episode of Take It or Leave It, host Josh Seidman sits down with Jim Jantz, a leave and disability compliance expert from Marsh McLennan Agency, to explore the critical role managers play in navigating employee leaves and accommodations. From recognizing the signs of a potential FMLA request to understanding when and how to escalate to HR or Legal, Josh and Jim discuss why proper manager training is essential to legal compliance, day-to-day administration, and employee well-being.

They also dig into some of the more complex challenges managers face, like handling intermittent FMLA leave, managing the interactive process under the ADA and PWFA, and knowing when leave might be a reasonable accommodation. With practical tips, common pitfalls, and real-world examples, this conversation is packed with guidance to help frontline managers support their teams without putting their organizations at risk.
