Foulston Employment Law Institute Session 3: Payroll Perils & Anatomy of an Employment Lawsuit

Description

Foulston Employment Law Institute Session 3:

11:30 AM - 12:30 PM  
Payroll Perils
Presented by Tara Eberline & Charles McClellan
This session offers guidance on managing employee compensation and payroll issues without stepping on tax law, state wage payment law, or federal wage-and-hour law landmines. We’ll examine some common misunderstandings and often-overlooked traps for the unwary to help you pay your employees correctly now, so you don’t have to pay the price for non-compliance later.

12:30 PM - 1:30PM
Congratulations, You’ve Been Sued: Anatomy of an Employment Lawsuit
Presented by Forrest Rhodes & Teresa Shulda
Do you know what to expect when an employee files an EEOC charge or lawsuit against your company? This session will detail the process from the administrative complaint phase all the way through litigation and trial. We’ll talk about the kind of evidence that works for and against your organization, which witnesses are considered “key,” and how lawyers work with their clients to develop an overall defense strategy. This session will be excellent preparation for the mock trial session the following week, and, more importantly, could help your organization think about ways to avoid litigation altogether.

 **Join us every Thursday in April for the 2023 Employment Law Institute – a series of timely and relevant updates on the latest employment law information you need to know. For over 30 years, the annual Employment Law Institute has brought together human resource professionals, business owners, executives, and managers in a wide range of industries across this region to learn about the latest legal developments, best practices, and strategies to make their organizations legally compliant and employers of choice.

Attorneys in private practice require prior approval. This year we are excited to present a virtual and hybrid format, featuring an interactive employment law case mock trial where you will be the juror, see how the trial process works, and determine how your HR decisions may play out in a courtroom setting.
