This session will provide actionable take-a-ways from Court decisions that directly impact your organization’s policies, procedures and practices. 

Do you want to make a difference in your organization? One way to achieve positive results is through evaluating and implementing changes based upon real-world scenarios that others have faced before. One of the best places to gain this knowledge is by assessing decisions that have come out over the course of the last year. However, there are a deluge of cases decided each year and the challenge is to know what items require your attention. This session will address your concerns, raise the most relevant decisions and even more importantly reveal the lessons and subsequent alterations you may want to make in your organization to stay ahead of the competition and minimize your courthouse concerns.  You will leave with a list of things to review the moment you get back to your organization. This session will help you:

  • Learn about the latest impactful court decisions in employment law. 
  • Gain an understanding of how the respective decisions will change the manner in which HR conducts itself. 
  • Evaluate case law to review existing policies and procedures for potential areas of necessary alteration moving forward.
