(Scary) Real Life Scenarios – Practical Application, Part II

Author: Tom Godar May 28, 2024 Duration: 19:02
Labor Law Insider host Tom Godar continues his engaging conversation with Insiders Mary-Ann Czak and Terry Potter as they assess the challenges employers face from numerous recent policy reversals offered by the National Labor Relations Board. Mary-Ann and Terry work through real-life scenarios in light of these changes, which now force employers to rethink how they approach drafting policies and monitoring and disciplining employees for workplace and online behaviors. In part two of this fascinating exchange, the Insiders offer suggestions on how to engage and train frontline supervisors and how to approach employee communications and decision-making in light of the expanded definition of protected and concerted activities. Join us for continuation of this lively discussion.

Hosted by Tom Godar, The Labor Law Insider is a conversation for anyone responsible for navigating the complex relationship between management and the workforce.

As the business landscape across every sector undergoes constant change, these conversations serve as a crucial resource for leaders, HR professionals, and operators who need to make informed decisions.
