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.
