Description:
This year’s Employment Law Institute will examine recent trends,
developments, and cutting-edge issues in employment law. Topics to be
discussed include implications of reasonable and religious
accommodations during the COVID-19 pandemic, newly enacted/amended New
York State and New York City Law, NLRB/Section 7 rights, and the bounds
of “appropriate” workplace behavior, including political speech and
#BLM. You will learn tips on how to navigate remote proceedings,
including depositions, mediations, and trials, as part of this “new
normal.” The Institute will also feature plenary sessions on diversity
in employment programs, legal issues with Diversity Equity and Inclusion
(DEI) programs, ethical obligations of remote work, and the security of
confidential information. The panels will include esteemed in-house
counsel, representatives from governmental agencies, and top
practitioners from both the plaintiffs’ and defense bar.
