Changes in Employers' Obligations in Challenging Economic Times:

There have been significant changes in employers' obligations during the past 9 - 12 months. We have seen more changes in that time than during the past 5 years. Harsh economic times also require changes in employment practices and cost cutting strategies relating to a business's workforce and most valued asset. On June 3rd, the San Marcos Area Chamber of Commerce and Special Guest Speaker, Jeffrey A. Hagelman, will discuss these significant changes and address how successful employers can proactively adjust to maintain an effective and efficient workforce in the light of concerning trends in employment law and the economy.

What you will learn:

1. Specific recent changes in the law that will affect an employer's obligations:

  • At-will employment - Texas' "Sacred" Employer Assumption is being challenged.
  • Family & Medical Leave Act - First Amendments to regulations in 15 year history of the act.
  • Reductions in force.
  • Cost cutting strategies other than lay-offs.

2. Specific action employers can take NOW:

  • Economic changes affect the dynamics of the workforce. Now is the time to review and revise policies and practices and streamline and reward personnel with a solution oriented approach and an eye to the recent changes and those to come.
