In today's hyper-litigious workplace, it's essential that you understand employment law issues, but it can be tough to do without putting yourself to sleep with legalese!  Learning employment law doesn't have to be boring.  This interactive session offers a new twist to employment law awareness - participants will discuss real workplace employment scenarios, learn how the court ruled in each case, and determine what lessons should be learned from each story.  You won't walk away from this session with a law degree, but you will be better able to think and act in a way that respects employee rights and minimizes your organization's legal risk.
