Seyfarth Summit 2014: Labor & Employment Law Compliance in a Time of Change
Address
Washington, DC
975 F Street, N.W.
Over the past year, court decisions, agency rulings, and regulatory revisions have fundamentally altered the labor and employment law landscape – and there’s more to come. From the FLSA to the ADA, from the NLRB to the EEOC, from Sarbanes-Oxley to DOMA, ensuring that their businesses remain compliant in the ever-shifting world of labor and employment law keeps many an HR professional or in-house counsel busy. Very busy.
Mindful of the busy-ness of your business, Seyfarth’s DC-based team has developed a full-day conference, designed to get you up to speed on a wide variety of topics – and to knock out any of those lingering CLE obligations.
Please join us for a full day of learning and networking with your colleagues from around the D.C. Metro area, as we discuss:
Plenary Sessions
- Advanced Leave and Accommodation Issues: Addressing Mental Disabilities, Workplace Violence, and Work at Home Requests;
