Come on down and join our highly anticipated ‘Best Practices for Best Employers™’ Labor & Employment Seminar that attendees call "by far one of the best in the country!" We'll be hosting the seminar in Portland on September 10. This year, we're helping attendees avoid being the weakest link by taking cues from some beloved game shows.

Our comprehensive annual seminar, now in its 43rd year, helps bring employers up to speed on developments that impact their businesses. We will have interactive sessions covering:

  • Top 10 Pressing Issues Employers Need To Know Now, to Outplay, Outwit, & Outlast Your Next Legal Challenge
  • From the Oval Office to the Break Room: Whirlwind Tour of Key Changes from the New Administration
  • Let's Take Leaves and Accommodations for $1,000: Learn About Key Decisions Changing the Landscape and What Employers Can Do to Avoid Disputes
  • Deal Or No Deal: Workforce Management and AI in Our New Algorithmic World
  • A Special Video Presentation and Roundtable Discussion: Starring Ballard Spahr’s "Not Ready for Prime Time Players"
  • What To Do When You Meet An Eligible Candidate Who Might Be The Employee Of Your Dreams: Pitfalls For Hiring and Onboarding—and How You Can Avoid Them
  • Survey Says: Navigating Sensitive Investigations Is Hard! How To Empathetically and Effectively Address, Investigate, and Resolve Challenging Complaints
  • And lots more!

For those unable to attend in person, we're offering a Recordings Only Pass which will include a copy of the presentations, to be sent out after the conclusion of our Seattle event.
