AGENDA: 8:30-9 a.m. 9-9:25 a.m. This presentation will explore recent initiatives and noteworthy enforcement activity by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as recent changes and updates in labor law under the Biden National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). Speaker: Conor Meeks 9:25-9:50 a.m. An effective response is critical, but what does it mean to have a prompt, thorough, and impartial workplace investigation? Who is best suited to lead the investigation? Who needs to know about the investigation? Join us for a discussion of these and other questions related to workplace investigations. Speaker: Connie Kremer 9:50-10:10 a.m. The U.S. Department of Labor recently said that “the misclassification of employees as independent contractors remains one of the most serious problems facing workers, businesses, and the broader economy.” In this presentation you will hear about recent legal developments, common pitfalls, best practices, and potential legal liability regarding worker misclassification. Speaker: Evan Priestle 10:10-10:35 a.m. Taft immigration team members will highlight hot topics in immigration from 2022 ranging from regulatory and policy changes to continuing government delays. This will be the “need-to-know” immigration guidance for your HR and business operations covering both nonimmigrant and immigrant procedures. Speakers: Emily Cashell, Staci Jenkins, Michael Lasonczyk 10:35-10:50 a.m. 10:50-11:10 a.m. Mental health has been an increasingly recurrent issue for employers in recent years, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. This presentation will cover situations in which mental health may affect the workplace, best practices to handle employee mental health issues, and recent legal developments involving mental health in the workplace. Speaker: Ivy Sander 11:10-11:35 a.m. Businesses must consider rapidly changing regulations, new work environments, and litigation risks when structuring today’s employee programs. This presentation will review the 2022 developments in employee benefits and executive compensation, including new rules, what to expect in future legislation, and practical steps for structuring plans and compensation agreements. Speaker: Matthew Secrist 11:35 a.m.-12:00 p.m. This presentation will provide an overview of the important and interesting case law and employment law developments throughout 2022. Speaker: Sarah Clay Leyshock 12:00 p.m.-12:30 p.m. Every plaintiff’s lawyer who represents employees hopes the next client who walks in their door will bring a terrific case. What sort of facts is the lawyer looking for in evaluating a potential employment lawsuit? What kind of miscues or omissions by HR will factor into the attorney’s analysis of the case? In this talk you will hear from an experienced plaintiff’s attorney on what HR professionals can do — alright, not do — to help create a lawsuit that is a sure-fire winner. Guest Speaker: Steve Simon, Tobias Torchia & Simon 12:30-1:30 p.m. Unable to join in person? Join us virtually!
