3 Employment Updates Every Executive Needs to Know

BDB-Best-Lawyers

On Tuesday, October 27, Susan Rodgers, Partner and Chair of the Employment & Labor Practice Group, and Neil Bhagat, Employment & Labor Associate, presented a webinar hosted by Crain’s Cleveland Business titled: “3 Employment Updates Every Executive Needs to Know.”

In this fast-paced webinar Susan and Neil present high-level employment law updates that every executive needs to know. The topics covered include the obligations of employers for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender employees, an update on guidance from the Department of Labor as to misclassification of independent contractors, and what to be cautious of with respect to employee rights given recent guidance from the National Labor Relations Board.

Take-away points:
1.) The obligations of companies with respect to LGBT rights and the protections in place for LGBT employees.
2.) Whether their company is misclassifying independent contractors and the consequences of the same.
3.) What an employer can and cannot do with respect to employee rights.
