• Best Practices for Managing a Remote Workforce: The COVID-19 pandemic exponentially increased the number of employees working in a remote environment in the United States. Although remote work has always had its place in the workplace, the volume of remote workers today requires employers to maintain a firm grasp of current trends and best practices in order to remain compliant. This session will discuss compliance pitfalls in wage and hour, workers compensation, employee relations, and other high risk areas tied to remote work that make employers susceptible to unwanted litigation concerns.

• Compliant Employer Websites Under the ADA: The unprecedented growth of the internet economy created previously unknown compliance concerns for unsuspecting businesses. These compliance concerns often take the form of access and are quickly becoming one of the largest compliance risks faced by employers. During this session, we will discuss the Americans with Disabilities Act and its impact on website access as well as proactive steps employers can take to maintain compliance in a burgeoning legal environment.

• Benefits Compliance in 2021 – Preparing for the Year Ahead: Join us to learn about the most recent developments affecting group health plans and to gain practical insights into the year ahead. During this session, we’ll examine the continued impact of COVID-19 on group health plan compliance, summarize relevant legislative initiatives, analyze important court decisions impacting the Affordable Care Act, and review recurring compliance requirements under federal and state mandates.
