| Description |
Presented by ACC Employment & Labor Committee, Sponsored by Jackson Lewis LLP. The current global financial crisis has sent shockwaves throughout virtually every sector of the economy. Employers across the country are responding to this unprecedented economic uncertainty by reducing expenses, primarily employment expenses. Many companies are reorganizing business units and reducing staff through voluntary and involuntary group termination programs. These initiatives present challenges for managing a wide range of employment law risks. Please join the leader of Jackson Lewis' RIF practice and our expert and experienced employment attorneys who will discuss RIF issues, including: Alternatives to Workforce Reductions; Effective Criteria and Procedures for Making Layoff Decisions; Determining Disparate Impact; Securing Valid Releases; WARN Act Considerations; and more.
