Ensuring Workplace Compliance

Being responsible for your company's compliance means dealing with a staggering array of federal, state, and local government regulations. To compound the issue, these regulations are frequently interrelated and subject to change by governing bodies and by case law.

The Employment and Labor Law Audit (ELLA) is an important way for employers to measure the effectiveness of their compliance efforts. The audit covers all personnel policies and practices, and the results are reported only to management. Your organization can then take appropriate, corrective action where necessary, to reduce the likelihood of government intervention later.

This workshop provides information to ensure that your organization complies with major components of employment and labor law. It also provides tools and training to conduct your own employment and labor law audit.

This workshop includes a copy of the latest version of Employment-Labor Law Audit by Ronald L. Adler and Francis T. Coleman, Esq.
