CONTROL YOUR OWN HEADLINES
In today’s high-stakes environment, in-house counsel and HR professionals are often on the frontlines, responding to headlines that threaten business and reputational objectives.
Join McDermott Will & Emery’s Employment and Employee Benefits practice groups at a half-day forum in our Chicago office. This forward-looking program is designed to drive conversation around emerging trends to help employers craft their own narrative, instead of being held captive by it.
Key areas of focus will include:
The heightened risk of class action litigation concerning the workplace and workforce
- The launch of attacks on ERISA retirement and health plans
- The rise in biometric data actions in Illinois
- Plaintiffs’ continued pursuit of FLSA claims on employers—and launch of retirement and health plan litigation
- Recent developments in FCRA defense
An encompassing approach to diversity challenges and opportunities
- Closing the pay gap: compensation best practices
- Unconscious bias: creating a culture of compliance and awareness
- Transgender employees: state of the discrimination law, model workplace practices and employee benefits trends
The evolution of workforce management in the age of the millennial
- The student loan crisis from a competitive benefits perspective
- The dangers of AI in recruitment practices
- Evolving mandates around marijuana in the workplace, including healthcare coverage laws
We hope to see you October 10.
