Introduction to the
Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) 6:00 – 9:00 PM at
UMass Lowell, Alumni Hall, 1 University Avenue, North
Campus. The Family Medical Leave Act provides important
rights for workers and can be used to protect members and win
grievances for workers who are disciplined for absenteeism and
tardiness. This workshop will also help educate members
about their extensive rights to time off to care for ailing
family members. In addition to providing information about
the FMLA, it will also cover the lesser-known but very important
Massachusetts Small Necessities Leave Act. Co-Sponsored by the
UMass Lowell Labor Extension Program and the Merrimack Valley
