[WATCH] Employee Mental Health: Complying with State, Federal Laws

In this Nov. 8. 2023 program, Berchem Moses attorney Rebecca Goldberg addressed the legal framework of state and federal laws applicable to mental health issues, from FMLA to ADA to Connecticut’s new requirement for large employers to provide service workers with mental health wellness days.

She examined the practical considerations for supervisors and human resources professionals about what is appropriate to ask and what’s off limits, how to provide help without inadvertently violating the law, and how to set boundaries with employees.

Given the rising stress levels among many workers in today’s post-COVID workplace, employers must be equipped with the skills to correctly navigate these situations.
