In times of economic uncertainty employers must confront the potential for reductions in force. When conducting reductions in force employers face numerous avenues of liability in executing these plans and are faced with significant risks from employee lawsuits.
Employers must consider not only the complex economic intricacies of a reduction in force, but also the wide scope of employment laws that could increase the risks and costs associated with reductions in force.
This webinar will help you understand some of these legal risks. You will learn what categories of workers these laws protect, how suits are brought and analyzed, and what practices employers can keep in mind when conducting a reduction in force to minimize the risk and cost to the employer.Big Sources of Employer Liability- Americans with Disabilities Act

| About Webcasts / Audio Conferences / Podcasts: | Webcasts, audio conferences, and podcasts are presentations that you
attend via the Internet, phone, or mobile device at a specified date and time for "live" versions, or at your convenience for "recorded" and "On-Demand" versions. The live
versions are interactive, meaning that participants can ask questions in real time, plus are a very cost-effective form of training because 1) you receive fast, convenient learning without
any out-of-office time; 2) you can invite as many colleagues as you'd like to listen in on a single phone line; 3) you incur no travel expenses; and 4) you and your colleagues are back
at work immediately after the session ends! And though with recorded versions you do lose the ability to ask questions, you gain the ability to hear the presentation numerous
times and to share it with others in your office. Handout materials and the phone number for live presentations are made available to you prior to the event via email from the
presenter and from the "MyAccount" link on the menu bar. Copies of the presentations are included with recorded versions. |
