JVC, Greenwald Doherty Law Firm Address How To Avoid Common Employee Lawsuits November 04, 2020 (0 comments)
New York, NY—The Jewelers Vigilance Committee and labor law firm Greenwald Doherty have joined forces to co-host a timely presentation about how to avoid employment lawsuits, especially during these unprecedented times of COVID-19 and amid changing laws.
The webinar will be held Tuesday, November 17th at 1:00 pm EST.
As the pandemic continues to upend workplace norms and disrupt employment relations in unprecedented ways, employment litigation has taken on a unique spin. The presentation will cover a variety of key issues that employers are facing and could lead to lawsuits if companies are not proactive, including:
- Accommodating employees with disabilities;
- Considerations in terminating, laying-off, or furloughing employees;
- COVID and safety-related matters;
- Harassment, discrimination and retaliation concerns.
In addition, the speakers will discuss special wage and hour considerations (that are heightened by the remote work phenomenon) and leave-related issues, in addition to providing practical, proactive solutions that businesses can take to protect themselves.
