Benefits aren’t benefits if you can’t use them. In this episode, we expose the disconnect between coverage on paper and coverage in practice across the logistics industry.

From temp workers misclassified and left out of healthcare to employees punished for taking protected leave, we break down what’s really happening on the ground — and what it’s costing workers and employers alike.

You’ll hear:

  • Why misclassification is more than a legal issue — it’s a human one
  • Real FMLA case outcomes that should make every HR team take notice
  • What the Department of Labor is watching for in 2024
  • Seven real-world steps to fix broken leave policies
  • A direct call to both policy makers and the workers who live through it

If you're in HR, management, or simply navigating the logistics industry yourself — this episode is your playbook for what fair coverage should look like.

🎧 Plus: Next week, we tackle the silent toll of return-to-work burnout.
