What Employers Can do to Secure Effective Releases, Separation Agreements, and Settlement Agreements Despite the EEOC and NLRB’s Recent Enforcement Agendas | Littler Mendelson P.C.

The EEOC and the NLRB have embarked on high-profile campaigns to challenge commonly used provisions in pre-litigation releases and separation agreements and post-charge settlement agreements. Releases of claims, covenants-not-to-sue, non-disparagement clauses, confidentiality requirements, and no-rehire provisions now are subject to objections from government agencies like never before. As a result, drafting effective documents to resolve disputes is more difficult than ever. Our speakers will cover recent legal developments and offer practical tips to enhance enforceability of these agreements.
