Potmesil: Make sure that the ADA accommodation does not create a direct threat to the employee. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

The voters say $500 and that is correct. But note about half of accommodations cost nothing at all. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Another interactive question: What the average cost of accommodations across employment sectors? #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Melinda Potmesil: A reasonable ADA accommodation does not have to include creating a job or relocating another employee. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Cory Reinberg notes that states have different requirement on number of employees. Illinois, for instance, it's one or more. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Voters said 15 or more. They are right! #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Question 2: How many employees must you have to be covered under ADA? #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Vote: Narrow win for Title V but the answer is Title I. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

First interactive question: Which Title of ADA do attendees care about most? #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Abramov: Number of ADA claims have gone up. Congress broadened its scope in 2008. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Final presentation (before cocktail hour and reception) will be an interactive joint session covering hot topics in HR law. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

@DanRoffman: There's two sides to every convo: If you can't get the data of the target employee, consider that of the recipient. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Godiner: Broad policies prohibiting audio/video recording in the workplace are not allowed. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Godiner: Employees can appeal to the public unless those complaints are made with reckless disregard to its truth or falsity. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Godiner: NLRB says you can't have a policy that blanket prohibits being disrespectful, negative, or rude. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

@DanRoffman: Good content filtering tools not only block inappropriate sites, but protect your systems from malware, viruses. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Godiner: The best practice is that policies should not prohibit disclosure of employee information. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

@DanRoffman: If terminating a work-from-home employee, bring them into the office where you can secure their technology/access. #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Godiner: NLRB prohibits policies that could "reasonably" be construed to prohibit "concerted activities." #HRroadmap

[TCLE_live @TCLE_live]

Another myth: We can handle it ourselves. @DanRoffman suggests putting a suspected thief's machine "one ice" - don't touch it. #HRroadmap
