HR Madness: The Road to a Winning Workplace

2010 Labor & Employment Law Workshop
Fall 2010

As Bobby Knight, former coach of the Indiana University Hoosiers, once said “Everyone wants to win, but not everyone is willing to prepare to win.”  Life, especially life in human resources, is like a basketball game – the tempo is fast-paced, the momentum is constantly shifting, and the game plan is continually changing.  During the past year, the country has undergone significant changes, and business owners and employers are feeling the effect.  The rules of the game are fluid and it is important to keep ahead of the pack.  As the coaches of your teams, you need to have a strong game plan and winning strategy to address these issues and additional changes looming on the horizon; in other words, you need to prepare to win.  This program is designed to do just that - prepare employers to meet the many challenges associated with managing employees, complying with government regulations and adhering to the labor and employment laws. 

The Constangy, Brooks & Smith, LLP Labor and Employment Law Workshop is an interactive program designed for human resources professionals, corporate counsel, supervisors and managers.  The program includes a comprehensive seminar manual that will be a useful resource, continental breakfast and lunch.  The seminar is a cost-effective opportunity to get answers to questions and specific practical advice.  Participants in previous years’ programs have told us that this is the most valuable seminar they attend all year.

Examples of sessions to be offered include:

  • Going Into Overtime - Understanding Unique FLSA Issues
  • Boxing Out Organized Labor - How to Stay Union-Free in a Pro-Union World
  • Staying In The Game - Health Related Attendance Issues
  • Benefit Free Throws - New Developments in Employee Benefits
  • Building the Dream Team - Hiring & Pre-Employment Issues
  • Personal Fouls - Dealing with the Use of E-mail and Online Social Networks

Registration costs $195 per person, and $175 for each additional person from the same company.
