This program will provide attendees with valuable information on a variety of timely HR legal topics. You will leave the program better informed on critical topics affecting your workplace and better “armed” to prevent certain workplace legal issues before they take on a life of their own!
Keeping the NLRB out of Your Business: Lauri Morris, L.D. Morris Law S.C.
Controlling Health Care Costs with Wellness Plans: Nilesh P, Mahadev Law Group, LLC
The Courts’ Impact on HR: Jennifer Mirus, Boardman & Clark LLP
Several recent key court decisions are going to redefine the bounds of employer liability for workplace issues. Cases concerning job transfers as reasonable accommodations under the ADA, and particularly Vance v. Ball State University, which addresses who in your organization can create liability as a “supervisor” (you might be surprised) will be addressed. Jennifer will explain what these decisions mean for your HR practices and how you must change internal policies, procedures and training efforts.
