Employment Law Q1 Wrap-Up and What to Expect for the Rest of 2016

Duration: 90 minutes

HR and legal experts agree: If you’re not staying abreast of employment law changes and developing trends, you’re asking for trouble. But many HR professionals have a full workload that prevents them from investing the time necessary to keep pace with the changing employment law landscape.

We’re only one quarter into 2016 and there is already a lot of action in the employment law arena. That’s why we’ve arranged this must-attend webinar with employment law expert Anniken Davenport, Esq. She will discuss what every HR leader needs to know: what’s already changed this year, what’s about to change, and what to watch for as the Supreme Court gets ready to make its employment law decisions. 

The bottom line: If this program helps you avoid even a single employment law misstep this year, your investment of time and money will be repaid many times over.
