2011 Midwest Employer Conference

You are invited to the 2011 Midwest Employer Conference. Today’s employment law counsel and HR executives face a changing workplace—uncharted territory populated with determined adversaries, unprecedented risks and compliance challenges. Employers confront an onslaught of new, complex legislative developments, administrative agency regulations and enforcement activity. At the same time, the plaintiffs’ bar has become increasingly emboldened, seeking to hold employers liable for any conceivable lapse in legal compliance. Join us for a day of exploring the most significant developments and latest trends impacting the workplace including:

• The 2011 Littler Report - Guest Speaker: Garry Mathiason, Chair of the Board, Littler Mendelson
• The Employee from Hell
• Retaliation and Whistleblowing: The Wave Becomes a Tsunami
• ADAAA/FMLA Update
• ERISA Litigation Update
• Labor Landscape 2011
• Legal Compliance in the Age of the Contingent Workforce - Guest Speaker: Reid Bowman, General Counsel, ELT
• Impact of Dukes v. Walmart
• Dealing with an Emboldened D.O.L.
• Social Media and Privacy

This year’s program has been designed to serve as a legal compass to help your organization stay on the path of legal compliance, avoiding risk while implementing practical solutions to enhance your workplace and workforce.
