This resource explains what's new regarding terminations, human rights and pension and benefits in Ontario by reviewing recent relevant laws and cases.

Join the panelists as they act out different leave and accommodation situations (taken from case law and real life examples) to demonstrate how employers should and should not respond to such requests.

The session will provide an overview of recent developments in benefits law, including the complicated ERISA, health and welfare, wellness and the employment related aspects of health care reform.

This interactive program will discuss how to prepare for a union campaign, including a discussion of manager training, solicitation rules and what a corporate campaign is.

This issue-spotting seminar will give you a high-level overview of key issues and trends relating to employee benefits plans. The goal is to enable you to spot potential problems, understand the framework and clarify the murky benefits plan language. Learn when to call in an expert.

The employment relationship is a<br />complex, rapidly changing area of the law. This survey program will cover the basics such as investigating internal complaints, responding to government investigations, addressing ADA and accommodation issues, managing overtime pay and FLSA classification compliance, handling leave issues, and avoiding retaliation claims. The course will also cover emerging issues such as social media, diversity programs, genetic<br />information discrimination, and class action waivers.

Generally, wage and hour collective actions require no showing of intent but can result in enormous damages awards. Complex rules, compliance vulnerability, an aggressive plaintiff's bar and a sluggish economy keep the claims for unpaid overtime, off-the-clock work and misclassification of workers, roiling. Vulnerable pay practices and policies are commonplace, and the DOL Wage and Hour Division, with increased funding and staff, is working overtime to enforce the law.

Executive compensation, increased communication and transparency for shareholders are among the hot-button issues in economic reform. Say on Pay Proposals — non-binding proposals included in a company’s proxy materials that call for an annual shareholder advisory vote on a company’s executive compensation program — have become more widespread as momentum is swinging toward allowing shareholders more access in matters of compensation.

In-house lawyers looking for an update on the fundamentals of employee benefits law, this program is for you. Our panel of labor specialists will provide you with a comprehensive look at the basic laws and regulations governing employee pension and welfare benefit plans. You will gain a basic knowledge of the rules that apply to both qualified and nonqualified plans covered by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and get an update on recent legislation affecting plans.

This session will include recommended compliance program enhancements to mitigate the risk presented by the increased enforcement climate.
