Understanding Labor and Employment Law
One of the fastest growing areas of litigation is employment law. Over the past
few years, employers have seen an increase in lawsuits brought by former employees
including claims for harassment, discrimination and violations of various state
and federal laws such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities
Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and the Family and Medical Leave
Act. In this seminar we discuss employee hiring, employee performance, documentation
and planning for smooth transitions. We offer guidelines for maintaining a culture
of employee awareness.
