Like any human relationship, the employer/employee relationship is complex and fraught with emotions. It is more than an exchange of labor for a paycheck. Numerous employment laws govern the relationship and provide rights to employees that employers must understand and honor, or face serious consequences. This session by Julia Paris, Employment Law Attorney, will share five essential considerations from her years of advising employers so attendees will leave with these practical takeaways:

• Employment laws to know and monitor
• Defensive employment practices
• Common pitfalls to avoid
