60 Minute Workshop | Live And On-Demand Updates Impacting How Employers Terminate Protected-Class Employees Thursday, October 15th 1 PM EST Like most organizations, you likely have an at-will employment statement in your employee handbooks, job applications, and individual employee contracts. But in 2020, there are a growing number of federal, state, and local laws that broaden the definitions of protected-class employees pose a significant threat to at-will employment. Staying updated on definitions of protected classes is crucial to your risk management/litigation avoidance program. Join us on Thursday, October 15th for a workshop that will help you fully understand the long (and growing) list of policies that protect employees from termination - and give you the tools you need to lawfully terminate protected-class employees. You'll leave this workshop knowing: What is - and isn't - a protected class under American employment law How to use arbitration and mediation agreements effectively as shields against discrimination suits How to draft an enforceable severance and release agreement that won't come back to haunt you What's left of the employment-at-will doctrine and how can it be used to the employer's advantage |
