HR Law for Small Businesses
First of all, what’s small? Which laws apply to me? That’s the first topic we’ll cover in this overview of employment law. Who ARE your employees? Who are truly independent contractors? What about temps? Do I have to count THEM? You’ll learn the tests that the government uses to define employees, as well as what is meant by integrated employers and joint employment. You may be surprised to find that you are already covered by laws you thought only applied to big employers.
In easy-to-understand language, the webinar will introduce principles involving employment discrimination, equal pay, overtime and minimum wage, FMLA, ADA, USERRA, COBRA, undocumented workers, government contracting, OSHA and when to report layoffs.
To put these compliance issues to practical use, this webinar is designed to correlate with our webinar called How to create a readable, effective and legal Employee Handbook. Register for both and get a discount—as well as expanded understanding of how to stay legally compliant and communicate important policies to employees.
