SUMMARY:From Awareness to Action: Suicide Prevention in the Workplace
DESCRIPTION:Join EARN for a webinar:\nVirtual Only \nSuicide impacts workplaces of all sizes and in all industries. Employers play a critical role in recognizing warning signs and connecting workers to support. In 2022\, 267 workplace fatalities occurred by suicide. These are not just statistics; they represent a preventable loss of life that affects colleagues\, families\, and the entire organization. While broader mental health conversations are important\, workplaces can benefit from learning more about this important topic. \nOrganizations that adopt proactive approaches to mental health and suicide prevention build stronger\, more resilient teams. Recent data show that 76% of U.S. workers report experiencing at least one symptom of a mental health condition in the past year. Employers can take meaningful steps to support their workforce and create environments that encourage early intervention and access to care. \nJoin the Employer Assistance and Resource Network on Disability (EARN) and National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) for a free\, informative webinar on practical strategies for implementing suicide prevention efforts in your workplace. \nWhat You Will Learn: \n– Key insights into suicide warning signs\, including specific verbal\, behavioral\, and situational red flags.\n– Effective strategies for intervening and communicating with a person at risk and connecting them to professional help.\n– Practical steps for fostering a work environment that reduces risk factors and promotes help-seeking behaviors. \nMeeting Speakers: \nAshley Bryant\, LPC; Extension Associate\, Yang-Tan Institute on Employment and Disability; Megan Delp\, PsyD LMFT; Director of Workplace Mental Health\, NAMI \nREGISTER NOW >>

SUMMARY:Title VII Compliance Analyses Best Practices

SUMMARY:What Federal Contractors Need to Know: The New Executive Order on DEI Discrimination and False Claims Act Enforcement
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a webinar:\nVirtual Only \nOn March 26\, 2026\, President Trump signed an Executive Order requiring all federal contracts subject to the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act to include a clause prohibiting “racially discriminatory DEI activities”—and designating compliance as material to the government’s payment decisions under the False Claims Act. This webinar will walk through the key provisions of the new EO\, including its definition of prohibited conduct\, the mandatory contract clause and its six specific obligations\, the enforcement and penalty framework\, and the implementation deadlines contractors need to be aware of. We will also discuss the DOJ’s evolving enforcement posture under the False Claims Act—including the role of qui tam whistleblower actions\, Civil Investigative Demands\, and data-driven investigations—and offer practical guidance on steps federal contractors should be taking now to prepare for compliance.\nPresenter: Jenny Yang | Vicki Lipnic | Danny Petrella | Meredith Gregston (Moderator) \nRecording: https://us06web.zoom.us/rec/share/lcCztlAyA–Nw4pSSp7YAMGEqxe9QHP4nwaJQMtBROYiU5WR08AyM4aeNclcr0pJ.nJKemdij9XAK1S2x?startTime=1775149280000 \n

SUMMARY:I‑9s and E‑Verify: Employer Obligations\, Enforcement Risk\, and Best Practices for Immigration Compliance
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a webinar:\nVirtual Only \nImmigration enforcement is a top priority of the Trump administration\, including heightened scrutiny on employer compliance obligations. All U.S. employers are required to verify employment eligibility by properly completing and maintaining Form I‑9\, and federal contractors must also use E‑Verify—a system that has become a best practice for many non‑contractor employers as well. Even employers that take these steps may still face government audits\, investigations\, or requests for I‑9 documentation from federal enforcement authorities. This program will examine employer obligations under the I‑9 and E‑Verify regimes\, highlight common compliance pitfalls\, and outline practical best practices for preparing for and responding to government inquiries. Being prepared for these requests is critical to ensuring compliance\, mitigating risk\, and avoiding unnecessary penalties or business disruption.\nPresenter: Craig Leen \nPresentation: NILG Presention I-9 and E-Verify Compliance\nRecording: https://us06web.zoom.us/rec/share/RdYyMyB9a6eniKZNh1DuGWmhca2P5yEzMHnFU_PGDlVW_u8n4RrqiapgRt3vn1Q.21bTl99AobPKZT4G?startTime=1776178879000

SUMMARY:The Case for Objective Performance Management Processes: Pay Equity\, Promotions\, and Terminations
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a webinar:\nVirtual Only \nOutside of workers whose productivity can be easily and objectively measured through quality and quantity of production\, the measurement of performance of employees rests\, for most employers\, on subjective evaluations of competencies\, quality\, and completion rates. Performance measures for administrative\, professional\, and management employees have often shown that it’s less the performance of the employee but the relationship between the rater and ratee that matters. When questioned by employees\, compliance agencies\, or even plaintiff’s attorneys as to why an individual got a different raise or was promoted over another employee\, performance management is the usual go-to defense. This webinar will discuss the case for more objective performance management processes along-side the pitfalls of subjective approaches including bias\, inconsistency\, and employee buy-in/morale/retention.\nSpeakers: Thomas J. Carnahan\, PhD\, Berkshire Associates\, LLC\, Rick Holt\, PhD\, Resolution Economics\, LLC\, and Guy Brenner\, JD\, Proskauer Rose\, LLP\n\n\nREGISTER NOW >>

SUMMARY:The Ballot and the Break Room: Midterm Elections and the Future of Workplace Policy
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a webinar:\nVirtual Only \n\nThe 2026 midterm elections promised to be a defining moment for federal employment policy. With Republicans holding narrow majorities in both chambers of Congress—Democrats needing just three House seats and four Senate seats to flip control—the stakes could not have been higher. Now\, immediately following this pivotal election\, this dynamic panel discussion will bring together leading practitioners and policy experts to analyze the results and their implications for the Trump administration’s employment policy agenda for the remainder of its term.\nOur distinguished panelists will assess the administration’s employment policy track record to date—including the rescission of the Biden-era independent contractor rule\, the return to the 2020 joint employer standard at the NLRB\, and aggressive enforcement efforts targeting workplace DEI initiatives. With the EEOC now operating with a Republican majority and quorum restored\, and new leadership firmly in place at all key Department of Labor agencies\, the discussion will examine how the election results position the administration’s agenda going forward and what the new congressional composition means for the trajectory of federal labor policy. \nAttendees will gain critical insights into how the election results will impact the administration’s enforcement priorities on hot-button issues such as alleged “illegal DEI” in the workplace\, restrictions on non-compete agreements at the state level\, the ongoing debate over federal paid leave\, union organizing activity in light of executive orders curtailing federal employee collective bargaining rights\, and evolving AI-in-employment compliance requirements. The panel will also assess the election’s influence on legislative initiatives\, agency rulemaking\, and the broader trajectory of employment law. \nWhether you represent employers navigating an evolving compliance landscape or advise clients on workforce strategy\, this session will equip you with the practical knowledge and forward-looking perspective needed to anticipate change and counsel stakeholders effectively. Join us for a timely and thought-provoking conversation on the intersection of electoral politics and workplace policy as we decode the implications of this pivotal election. \n\nSpeakers: David Cohen\, Nita Beecher\, Vicki Lipnic\, and Danny Petrella\n\n\nREGISTER NOW >>
