 Waag
and Co. periodically produces The Strategic EMPLOYER newsletter,
delivered via email, keeping you up-to-date on recent legal
news affecting employers. This newsletter is meant as a working
tool for employers to help them explore areas that may be of
strategic value to their business. The actions that managers
take today will affect the quality of your workforce for years
to come. Such actions may also be judged by juries three or
more years from now. What will be the context in which such
actions will be judged? In order to prevail in such circumstances,
employers need to look to the horizon and recognize the approaching
legal trends.
The
goal of The Strategic Employer is to make you aware of some
of the more important new laws that have recently come out,
as well as what to expect as each year progresses. If recent
history is any indication, we expect that there will be no
shortage of changes to report.
