The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced the release of a revised version of Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification which must be used by September 18, 2017.

Some areas of employment law cause as much frustration for employers as the lack of a definitive answer to how much leave must be provided to employees for medical reasons under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and similar state laws. This webinar will cover factors that drive leave analysis and your obligations, balancing employer and employee rights, common pitfalls to avoid, and more.

We previously announced the beginning of a comprehensive compliance webcast series covering a wide range of topics that impact your company. Follow the link above for additional information, including instructions to register for our first webcast on April 28, 2017; President Trump – The First 100 Days and Beyond. 

On March 27, 2017, President Donald Trump officially completed the revocation of the Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces Executive Order.  Government contractors are no longer required to report violations of certain federal employment laws when bidding on contracts worth $500,000 or more and are no longer required to comply with the provision’s paycheck transparency rules.

When the new president is sworn in on January 20, 2017, on the steps of the U.S. Capitol, the Oval Office will have a new occupant. There will also be new faces in Congress and some government compliance policies are likely to change. That begs the question – so what does this mean for you and your company?
