Not knowing the law is no excuse for accidentally breaking it. This is important to ensure your budget is not blown on lawyers and fines and so your company's reputation is not scarred by bad decisions, even if they were unknowing mistakes.

Learning Objectives:-

  • Participants will be able to describe the major stages of the employee lifecycle (recruitment, onboarding, performance management, termination) and explain how employment law influences decisions at each stage
  • Participants will be able to list and explain key employment law areas (e.g., discrimination, wage & hour compliance, leave laws, workplace safety, retaliation) and analyze their impact on day-to-day operations.
  • Participants will be able to evaluate the role of clear, well-communicated policies in preventing legal disputes and apply best practices for policy development and enforcement.

Areas Covered in the Session:-

  • Explain how employment law impacts decisions from hiring to terminations
  • Identify five top employment law concerns and their importance
  • Understand how written policies can help us stay out of court.
