ABOUT THE EVENT

2020 has been a tumultuous year.  COVID19 has resulted in unprecedented layoffs.  As many states began to lift restrictions to allow employees to return to work, the tragic death of George Floyd and others lead to widespread protests throughout the world.   Social media has exploded as individuals speak out.  Individuals are speaking out both on-duty and off-duty.  A number of employer concerns have arisen due to this free speech and has also raised the issue of what obligations employers have towards their employees during this time.  This webinar will walk you through some of those concerns.
