Effect of Election 2016 on labor and employment law. We asked our practice group heads and some thought leaders to tell us how they think employers will be affected by a Trump Administration on specific labor and employment law issues. This client bulletin is packed with prognostication about what we may see in the areas of affirmative action and OFCCP compliance, litigation and class action litigation, immigration, labor relations, wage and hour, and workplace safety. By Cara Crotty (affirmative action/OFCCP), Maureen Knight and Steve Moore (class litigation), Maureen Knight and Randy Loftis (litigation), Penni Bradshaw (immigration), Zan Blue, Cliff Nelson, and David Phippen (labor relations), Jim Coleman (wage and hour), and Bill Principe, Pat Tyson, and David Smith (workplace safety/OSHA).

Incorporating mindfulness into the practice of law. The practice of law can be contentious and stressful, and the stress can spill over into our personal lives. At FOCUS, our women's leadership blog, Heidi Wilbur talks about how lawyers can cope by practicing mindfulness.

Don't miss ConstangyTV! I know I've already talked about this a lot, but I just have to do it one more time. This week, we launched ConstangyTV's Close-Up on Workplace Law, starring Leigh Tyson of our Atlanta Office. Each month, Leigh will interview an attorney about a hot labor or employment law issue. In our first show, Leigh talks with Cara Crotty about the ever-evolving definition of sex discrimination under federal law. You can watch the video here on the blog, from our website (click on the red YouTube button at the bottom of the screen), and directly on YouTube. (I told you that we didn't want you to miss it!)
