Diverse teams can achieve greatness, but they need to exist in an inclusive environment that promotes psychological safety. Psychological safety refers to people’s perception of the consequences of taking interpersonal risks, and research suggests it is the number one driver of team effectiveness. It is also essential for a resilient workforce and organizational agility.

HR is challenging, but the past two years, well, a root canal may be easier!

Please join us for an engaging and interactive conversation with Christina Reger, Founder of the Law Offices of Christina Reger, LLC to discuss some of the hot topic that you will need to know as we begin another year in the wonderful world of HR. Christina will cover:

Are you up to speed with everything that has happened in the courts this year, whether virtual or in-person as it relates to employment issues?  Curious what may be on the horizon that you will need to address for your workforce?   Are you seeking to gain a competitive advantage in this tight job market about where the most pressing employment issues are moving?

It takes all types of people to make this world go ‘round – especially in the workplace. If you try to manage every type the same way, you’ll hit more brick walls than you signed up for and your inmates will be running your asylum. Not every problem can be solved in a brief presentation, but we will cover some different ways to approach your “problem children” that will help you maintain your sanity, improve your relationship with the “good guys” and come away feeling more in control of the situation.

This presentation will discuss some key developments and hot topics emanating from the Biden Administration in wage and hour law, including those taking place at or through the U.S.

A streamlined interactive process should not be complicated. In the aftermath of broadscale nationwide shutdowns, however, employers and HR professionals struggle to apply traditional processes to vastly expanded expectations for telework allowances.  In an interactive format, we will apply practical processes to support HR professionals in simplifying a legally defensible accommodations process, particularly in the face of increasing telework accommodations requests.

Learning Objectives:

We will discuss the areas where Safety and Human Resources meet:

• Employee Communication and Training
• Recordkeeping
• New Hire Orientation
• Discipline and Documentation
