SUMMARY:Employer Risk & Compliance Conference
DESCRIPTION:Join American Society of Employers and Midwest ILG for an In-person Conference:\nThe Employer Risk & Compliance Conference is designed for employers managing evolving regulatory requirements. The program focuses on what organizations must do to remain compliant across critical areas such as AI\, DEI\, immigration\, job postings\, wage and hour\, and OSHA. Featuring national compliance experts\, this conference is designed for risk managers\, compliance officers\, and leaders who oversee enterprise-wide risk and regulatory strategy \n8:05 a.m. – 9:05 a.m.\nEffective HR Compliance in Today’s Changed Enforcement Landscape\nMickey Silberman\, Shareholder\, Silberman Law PC \nHR compliance and enforcement have shifted significantly under the Trump administration. Federal priorities related to EEO/affirmative action\, immigration\, wage and hour issues\, and other employment regulations continue to evolve\, while states are introducing a growing range of compliance requirements tied to AI\, pay transparency\, and related workplace issues. This session will provide a practical roadmap for navigating the evolving compliance landscape\, identifying key priorities across jurisdictions\, and implementing strategies that help HR practitioners succeed in their expanding roles. \n9:10 a.m. – 10:00 a.m.\nChanges in Approach to Employment Immigration\nAlexandra LaCombe\, Partner\, Fisher & Phillips LLP \nBusiness immigration continues to evolve rapidly\, from increased visa scrutiny and heightened worksite enforcement to changes in the H-1B process and compliance requirements. This session will address the most pressing immigration issues impacting employers today: navigating current enforcement trends\, managing workforce disruptions\, and maintaining compliant immigration programs while meeting critical business needs. Attendees will gain practical insights to navigate today’s complex immigration environment. \n10:15 a.m. – 11:05 a.m.\nHow to Recognize\, Prioritize\, and Manage AI Risk\nDan (dk) Kuang\, Ph.D.\, Director\, Resolution Economics\nBrian Marentette\, Ph.D.\, Director\, People Insights\, Berkshire Associates \nArtificial Intelligence (AI) is advancing at a blistering pace and with all the potential upside\, many companies are going all in on AI with their most important asset–their workforce. So far\, successful AI adoption has been mixed\, and compliance requirements continue to heighten along with legal liability. While this may seem concerning\, there is a win-win-win strategy that HR professionals can adopt to thread this needle. In this session\, participants will gain practical insight into successful AI implementation\, understand outside tool issues\, and learn what will create efficiencies in the HR workflow. Participants will also understand the application of AI in difficult and high-stake personnel decision making (e.g.\, recruitment\, compensation) and common pitfalls to avoid. \n11:10 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.\nPreparing for Local Compliance Challenges\nBill Osterndorf\, Vice President at Ellen Shong & Associates\, LLC \nEqual employment opportunity compliance requirements involving state and local units of government can be difficult for employers to navigate. These requirements differ between jurisdictions\, and employers may be subject to conflicting mandates. During this session\, we will cover various types of state and local compliance issues that employers face\, differences between federal compliance mandates and state and local mandates\, and share sources of information for state and local requirements. \n1:00 p.m. – 1:50 p.m.\nManaging the Expanding Patchwork of Pay Transparency Requirements\nAnnette Tyman\, Partner\, Seyfarth Shaw LLP \nPay transparency requirements continue to expand across the U.S.\, and the resulting regulatory landscape is anything but uniform. Employers face a patchwork of state and local rules that vary widely in scope\, expectations\, and enforcement. This session will outline key jurisdictions with pay transparency mandates\, highlight the risks and penalties associated with non‑compliance\, and explore practical strategies for building a cohesive national approach. \n1:55 p.m. – 2:45 p.m.\nLawful Diversity is Good; Unlawful Diversity is Evil\nAllisa A. Horvitz\, Member Attorney\, Roffman Horvitz \nDiversity has been under attack since January 2025. Executive Order 11246 was revoked and initiatives that were lauded only a few years ago are causing regulators to withhold billions in government funds and agency approvals. Given the confusion\, participants will learn the difference between lawful and unlawful diversity\, how to implement programs designed to attract a diverse workforce while complying with equal opportunity laws\, and how to maintain programs aimed at retaining employees who share the organization’s commitment to inclusion. \n3:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.\nLeading Compliance Given All the Uncertainties\nLauren Hicks\, Shareholder\, Ogletree Deakins \nLeading compliance is extremely complicated given all the stakeholders and the need for collaboration throughout the organization. This session will provide additional insights and pressure points reemphasizing the hot topics compliance leaders need to prioritize and will discuss situations that can unexpectedly arise and possible strategies to overcome them. \nEarly Bird Pricing: ILG members can attend for $109 with coupon code ILG2026 through June 26th; After June 26th: ILG members can attend for $129 with coupon code ILG2026 \nHotel Accommodations: Rooms are available at the Embassy Suites in Troy\, Michigan at a special rate of $169 for conference attendees. \nEvent Location: Oakland Community Health Building 5505 Corporate Drive\, Ground Floor\, Troy\, MI 48098 \nREGISTER NOW >>
