2012 Employment Law Update Webinar

Back for a third year, Jeff Nowak presents "2012 Employment Law Update" as part of the University of Illinois' School of Labor and Employment Relations (SLER) Alumni Teleconference Series.  Jeff discusses new employment laws, regulations and initiatives from 2011 and what you should prepare for in terms of workplace law in the year ahead. 

At the top of the list are recent changes to the ADA and FMLA as well as the NLRB’s recent initiatives that affect union and non-union workplaces alike.  As always, Jeff offers practical advice in addressing these new laws and initiatives, including suggested approaches to social networking in the workplace and avoiding retaliation claims.  Due to the recent changes in the law, Jeff also outlines the changes employers will need to make to their employee handbooks and personnel policies in 2012.  Whether you are an HR professional, in-house counsel or high-level executive, this webinar promises practical takeaways for all attendees.
