In 2023, we saw a flurry of activity from various federal agencies targeting employment practices. The U.S. DOJ and other agencies continue to push their 'no poach approach.' Federal rules and guidance are also changing related to employers' sharing of wage and benefits information, M & A's, and more. Join this interactive program as we review the latest news, trends, cases, and pitfalls to avoid throughout the employment cycle from recruitment to separation. This program will NOT cover the FTC’s new and final noncompete rule; join this speaker’s session to Tuesday, “Employment Agreements Under Fire” from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. for an in depth look at the final rule and what may lie ahead.
Learning Objectives:
- Review applicable laws and recent court decisions impacting related policies and practices.
- Name two proactive practices from the DOJ and FTC’s “Antitrust Guidance for HR Professionals”.
- Consider the most recent federal agencies' rules and guidance.
- Consider the legal question of 'Can we do this' balanced with the subjective, 'Should we do this?'
