Summary
When is the last time your company took a close look at its key workplace policies? Based on recent and potential changes in employment law -- stemming from court decisions, new statutes, and recent and pending legislation -- employers should review and revise their employment policies, documents, arbitration agreements, handbooks, and more. In this webinar, we discuss the latest federal and California developments impacting workplace policies and give you the tools you need to protect your company's interests and avoid exposure to expensive legal claims. Topics we examine in depth include:
- The U.S. Supreme Court's and other courts' recent decisions impacting arbitration agreements -- what you should know and drafting tips.
- California employers' ability to restrict competition and solicitation by former employees, and employers' potential liability for making agreements with other businesses regarding competition and solicitation, and a review of developments in other states.
- Handbook policies affected by recent legislation and case developments, including:
- Appearance policies;
- Policies regulating conduct outside the workplace, such as smoking and use of medical marijuana; and
- Policies regarding employer technology and social media.
- A look at recent cases that impact bonuses and overpayments, commission plans, and benefits.
