Anyone who has managed a workforce in California knows that virtually all of the legal rules are different. This audio conference will summarize the latest labor and employment law developments impacting employers.

In addition to the topics below, this presentation will address new laws and other key California court decisions that may affect your workplace in 2007 and beyond.

You will learn about:

  • Employers' sexual harassment training obligations under AB 1825 (and what the latest regulations say you need to do);
  • Meal and rest periods - the new challenges for California employers;
  • Leaves of absence under California law - the struggle continues;
  • The risks associated with employee reimbursement practices;
  • Workers' privacy rights reach the California Supreme Court - what the case means to you;
  • The recent surge in class action litigation (from wage and hour to sex and race discrimination) - is your company at risk?
  • Sexual harassment in the workplace and the increasing number of claims brought by teenagers; and
  • The most significant California employment law decisions of the last 12 months (a popular feature we call the "new ruling round-up").
