SUMMARY:Employer Advisory Council presents: Can We Do That 8 California Employment Law Questions That Get Expensive Fast
DESCRIPTION:Employer Advisory Council presents: Can We Do That 8 California Employment Law Questions That Get Expensive Fast \nIt often starts with a question that sounds completely routine: Can we move forward with the termination? Do we really have to investigate this? What can we say in a reference? Is this employee actually entitled to overtime? \nFor California employers\, the difference between the answer that seems right and the answer the law requires can create significant legal\, financial\, and operational risk. Join Jason Geller of Fisher Phillips for a practical\, scenario-based session focused on the employment-law questions California employers and HR professionals encounter in the real world. Rather than providing a broad statutory overview\, Jason will walk through real-world workplace situations\, explore what employers commonly assume\, explain where the legal risk actually lies\, and share practical considerations for making better-informed employment decisions. \nThe session will also include interactive audience participation and a dedicated Q&A\, giving attendees an opportunity to submit their own California employment-law questions and hear practical answers from an experienced employment attorney. \nPresented by Jason A. Geller Regional Managing Partner Fisher Phillips \nJason A. Geller is a Regional Managing Partner at Fisher Phillips who represents and advises employers on a broad range of California employment-law matters\, including employment litigation\, wage and hour disputes\, employee classification\, whistleblower and retaliation claims\, leave and accommodation issues\, and workplace compliance. \nHe has extensive experience defending employers in state and federal courts and before federal and state agencies\, while also counseling businesses on strategies to prevent litigation and manage employment-law risks. Jason has been recognized in The Best Lawyers in America and Lawdragon’s 500 Leading U.S. Corporate Employment Lawyers. \nHe serves as a Board Member and Legislative Chair of the Employer Advisory Council of Alameda County and is active in the California employment-law community \nWhat You’ll Learn: \n\nRecognize workplace situations that may carry greater legal risk than initially apparent\nDistinguish between common employer assumptions and the legal considerations that should guide employment decisions\nIdentify potential risks before making decisions involving employees\n Apply practical considerations to reduce employment-law exposure\nApproach difficult employment decisions more thoughtfully and proactively\nLearn from real-world employment scenarios faced by California employers\n\n  \nONLINE EVENT*
