We hire employees to come to work, but what happens when they need protected time off or a reasonable accommodation?  In our annual two-part workshop, we provide detailed information about all of the relevant laws and regulations (including legal updates for 2020) and practical guidance on the challenging issues that arise in these areas.  Attendees will have the opportunity to work through new hypotheticals to test their knowledge, all of which are based on real life scenarios and require thoughtful analysis and strategy.

Because we have litigated cases in this complex area, and we counsel our clients every day on these issues, we are uniquely qualified to help you hone your skills.  Public and private sector Human Resources/EEO professionals of all levels will appreciate our practical and organized approach.  We answer the tough questions, and give you the tools you need to succeed. 

Due to California’s COVID-19 restrictions and our general concerns for your safety and health, we will offer this workshop as a two-day webinar.  Don’t worry!  You won’t have time to be bored.  The workshop will be just as engaging, entertaining, and dynamic as possible.  We promise. 

 Do not miss this workshop – we only offer it once a year!  Register now!  Certificates provided upon completion.
