Hot Topics In Employment Law – Annual New Jersey Seminar

Event

Hilton Short Hills
41 John F Kennedy Pkwy
Short Hills, NJ 07078

1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.

New Jersey has adopted new laws that significantly impact employers, including expansion of leave protections and benefits, invalidation of commonplace provisions of employment contracts and settlement agreements, and adoption of paid sick leave.  In addition, new laws have been proposed including legalizing marijuana, requiring significant severance pay for layoffs, and restricting non-compete agreements. Judicial decisions, trends in claims filed, and backlash against employers fueled by media attention have ramifications that extend beyond the courtroom and their impact can reverberate across the business landscape.  Ensuring compliance and minimizing risk while navigating a rapidly changing business environment  requires employers to know what is happening right now. 

Join Fisher Phillips for a half-day employment law seminar designed to provide critically important information and practical solutions to some of the most important issues employers in New Jersey currently face. Presentation topics will feature a forward-looking perspective on employment challenges brought on by the latest development in New Jersey and federal law as well as cultural shifts affecting employers. Topics will include:

  • New Jersey’s Changing Legal Landscape: Recent Decisions, Trends and Their Impact on Your Business
  • What You Don’t Know Can Hurt You!  Navigating the Wave of Recent New Jersey Laws and Proposed Legislation
  • Rightsizing: Avoiding Legal Landmines When Evolving Technology and Economic Forces Require Restructuring the Workforce
  • Making #MeToo #NotHere
