Your Employment Law Obligations Have Changed! Here's Your Chance to Catch Up With All the Changes at One Time...and in One Beautiful Place. The California legislature will be wrapping up its current session this fall, and Governor Schwarzenegger has until October 14 to sign any bills into law. Many of the bills on the table could directly affect your workplace—do you know what they are and how to respond? Plus, new court cases—both state and federal—are coming out all the time. The U.S. Supreme Court recently released two key rulings, one on pay bias suits and one on overtime for caregivers, both of which could affect your business. And the California Office of Administrative Law has just released long-awaited regulations clarifying your harassment training obligations under A.B. 1825. Are you up to speed on everything you need to know now? Are your policies and practices on basic workplace like hiring, firing, and investigations sharp enough to help you run your business effectively and stay out of legal hot water? Join us on December 10-12 for the second annual California Employment Law Update at the Claremont Resort & Spa in Berkeley, California. This exclusive conference—brought to you by the same people who produce the award-winning California Employment Law Answers—will explain everything you need to know to make your workplace lawsuit-resistant and get it running like a finely tuned machine. You'll learn:
- Up-to-the-minute information on the new laws and court cases—both state and federal—that can affect your business, and how to effectively respond
- How to make sense of California's uniquely complex wage and hour laws, and how to make sure you're in compliance

- New developments in the laws pertaining to pay bias and overtime—including full coverage of the the U.S. Supreme Court's decisions in Ledbetter v. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. and Long Island Care at Home, Ltd. v. Coke.
- How to conduct performance evaluations that are fair, effective, and legally sound
- How to properly navigate employee dress codes so you achieve a professional-looking workforce without opening yourself up to bias lawsuits
- The best tips for writing an effective, legally binding employee handbook that won't inadvertently create unwanted contracts you'll be forced to honor
