This event has already passed by. Sorry.

Event Description

The Department of Labor has seen an increase in charges from the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) of 34% in the past two years with the majority of these involving the improper payment of overtime.  It is estimated that up to 90% of employers unknowingly violate the FLSA.  .  Employment law attorneys are projecting payouts up to $1B annually resulting in record payouts for class actions. 

 

As soon as employers/HR Reps & managers think they have a handle on the federal employment laws, they are overwhelmed with the number of state and local employment laws that supersede federal laws such as medical marijuana, lunch and break periods, sick leave/disability, criminal background/credit checks and drug testing just to name a few.


The topics discussed in  this timely presentation are no longer classified as only HR’s concerns.  Every member of the management team involved in daily supervision must have a thorough understanding of these critical issues that cost employers millions of dollars annually.  We will thoroughly discuss supervisors, managers, executives and HR’s role in avoiding the pitfalls and land mines associated with the Top 5 greatest employment concerns.
