Join SCHRA for our in-person Employment Law Updates event with attorney, Ben Eckhart!
For the last two years, the pandemic put HR Professionals’ expertise, stamina, and patience to the test through ongoing COVID-19-related work rules, regulations, and the need for constant policy review and revision. HR devoted resources to ensure compliance with pandemic regulations and deliver a compelling work experience for current and future employees. However, as we move toward reopening, now is the time to assess how other employment law updates may impact organizations.
This session will address current employment and labor law updates outside of pandemic-related issues. There are noteworthy and critical updates in Labor, Pay Equity, Wage/Hour, OFCCP, and employee agreements.
This session will be eligible for one (1) SHRM credit.
