Sessions

With each ruling, the Supreme Court of the United States is permanently shaping federal employment law principles. Recent and looming Supreme Court rulings on issues such as class arbitration, Title VII's exhaustive requirements and sexual orientation discrimination stand to bring significant changes to the workplace. This session examines these and other key employment law decisions from the last few terms with more than just a summary of the holdings. The facts of each case, the court's rationale, the long-term implications and, most important, how the decision will affect the employer community are analyzed in an interesting and entertaining fashion.
