Session 2: Federal Contractor Update - Hear updates on federal contractor compliance obligations and recent Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) regulations, including a review of the Trump Administration’s impact.
Session 3: Who’s the Boss? Update on Employee vs. Contractor and Joint Employer Status - Cash-strapped taxing authorities and employee rights agencies want a clearly defined employer (or two) to take responsibility. The gig economy and other lovers of freedom and flexibility prefer the independence of temporary alliances and blurred lines. Mix in a new Administration and the task of proper classification—and avoiding the costs of a mistake—just became trickier.
Session 4: Pay Equity Panel - Explore the principle of pay equity, how it is reflected in the various statutes governing pay equity, and the legal and practical concerns in complying with those statutes.
Session 5: Developments in Whistleblower Cases - Last year was a banner year for whistleblower cases. Hear the latest in the developments and examine the drivers behind big verdicts and judgments.
