When Enough is (Not) Enough! Today’s Legal Landscape in Workplace Flexibility 

You probably know the basics about implementing flexible work arrangements that comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) and other regulations.  But the rules of the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) are anomalous and vague, especially as they affect areas such as non-exempt employees.  Adding to the confusion is the fact that state and federal laws often overlap.

Join this interactive program to discover the safest proactive trends to adopt and the pitfalls to avoid in developing, implementing, and overseeing workplace flexibility strategies, programs and practices.  An attorney who specializes in employment law and one of the most prominent experts in the area of Workplace Flexibility, Christine Walters has addressed congressional and state legislative committees as well as federal administrative agencies on the value of flexible work arrangements. 

In this hard-hitting program, she will discuss which practices you should be implementing in this legal climate and how to avoid running afoul of federal or state laws.  You’ll also learn about the latest trends and practices which can provide workplace flexibility while still balancing the needs of a successful business operation.
