WASHINGTON — A large conference room at the Society for Human Resource Management’s (SHRM) Employment Law and Legislative Conference grew stuffy and crowded yesterday morning as HR professionals snagged every last table, chair or open spot of carpet to catch a session on absence and disability management.
It’s perhaps no surprise the session attracted an army of HR pros — recent research revealed 60% of employers earned a grade of C, D or F at managing employee absence and disability.
