What to expect of this webinar:
You do not want to miss this event!
In California’s ever-changing regulatory landscape, staying compliant with employment laws isn’t just important—it’s essential. Failing to keep up with evolving workplace regulations, audits, and legal obligations can lead to costly fines, employee lawsuits, and even government enforcement actions.
🔍 Are you confident your HR practices would pass an audit?
HR audits uncover compliance gaps, inefficiencies, and risks—before they turn into lawsuits or government fines. We’ll break down what auditors look for and how you can conduct a proactive self-audit.
📑 Do you fully understand I-9 audits and immigration compliance?
With heightened government scrutiny on Form I-9 and employment verification, businesses need to be prepared for an immigration audit. Learn how to avoid common mistakes, correct errors, and ensure your documentation is up to date.
💰 Are you meeting pay equity and transparency laws?
California has ever-tightening pay equity laws, and salary transparency requirements mean employers must rethink their compensation strategies. This webinar will cover how to analyze pay structures, conduct a pay equity audit, and avoid legal pitfalls.
⏳ Are you at risk of wage and hour violations?
Wage and hour violations—such as misclassifying employees, failing to pay overtime, or non-compliant meal and rest breaks—are among the most litigated workplace issues. We’ll discuss how to identify risks and implement best practices to ensure compliance.
📚 Do your HR policies align with current legal requirements?
With employment laws constantly evolving, outdated HR policies can create legal vulnerabilities. We’ll help you audit your policies and procedures to ensure they meet current state and federal regulations.
👩⚖️ Are your workplace investigations, performance management, and employee relations practices legally sound?
From handling harassment complaints to navigating wrongful termination claims, HR teams must be diligent in documentation, fair in decision-making, and compliant with anti-retaliation laws. This webinar will provide guidance on best practices to avoid common employer mistakes.
