November Chapter Meeting
Presentation Description:2018 Legal Update: The Year of Less, Equal & More! In this one-hour session Jodi Slavik, Employment Attorney and Strategic Services Director, Vigilant will provide a comprehensive review of employment law developments in 2018, including court decisions, agency rulemaking, state laws, and relevant local ordinances. The class is designed for business owners, HR professionals, payroll and benefits experts, attorneys, and other consultants. 2018 has already proven itself to be the year of demanding less, equal, and more: Less groping! Equal pay! More leave! Cries of harassment and unfair pay are being heard and accepted by a wider audience, and the Washington legislature is stepping in to do what the federal government won’t. In her high-energy, straight-talk style, Jodi will arm you with the knowledge you need to:
