Navigating Thorny Employment Law Issues in the Construction Sector

Ted Boehm will be speaking in an upcoming Strafford live webinar, "Navigating Thorny Employment Law Issues in the Construction Sector" scheduled for Thursday, January 26, 1:00pm-2:30pm EST.

Construction employers face myriad employment law compliance challenges, including meeting federal and state wage and hour law obligations and navigating complex labor relations issues.

Employment counsel advising construction industry employers must understand the current enforcement and litigation environment and help their clients implement effective labor and employment policies and practices that will minimize the risk of noncompliance with federal and state laws. Counsel must also be prepared to defend their construction industry clients in National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) proceedings, Department of Labor (DOL) audits and employee lawsuits.

Our panel will provide guidance to employment counsel on advising clients in the construction industry regarding compliance with federal and state employment laws, including the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the Davis-Bacon Act, and state wage and hour laws. The panel will discuss unique legal challenges construction employers face and best practices for minimizing and defending claims.

We will review these and other key issues:

• What unique wage and hour risks do construction industry employers face?
• What unique labor relations risks do construction industry employers face?
• What are best practices for construction industry employers to ensure compliance with wage and hour laws?
• What are best practices for construction industry employers to avoid joint employer liability?

After our presentations, we will engage in a live question and answer session with participants so we can answer your questions about these important issues directly.

I hope you'll join us.
