The employment practice group at Sheehey Furlong & Behm will host a free employment law seminar for clients and prospective clients on October 4th beginning at 1:30pm at Hotel Vermont in Burlington. This three hour seminar is designed for business owners and HR professionals and will include an update on recent state legislative changes, with a focus on the impact of marijuana legalization, continuing challenges posed by the paid sick leave law, and limitations on wage and salary discussions in the workplace. We will review sexual harassment in the workplace in light of the “me too movement”. Additionally, we will offer practical tips and insights for dealing with perennial employee relations challenges, such as when to use an employment contract and how to successfully document interactions with employees. The afternoon will conclude with a cocktail reception.
Formal invitations will be sent the week of September 3rd and will include additional seminar details. Contact Jamie Martell at jmartell@sheeheyvt.com to request an invitation.
