SUMMARY:What You May Not Know About Employee Documentation
DESCRIPTION:Managers and supervisors are all too familiar with the human resources mantra of “document\, document\, document”. It is almost as if simply writing down seemingly important aspects of workplace issues is in itself a solution to the challenges of legal compliance and leadership. Too often\, however\, workplace documentation creates an additional problem for employment counsel to overcome in court or during an administrative investigation. This back-to-basics workshop is a review of what you may not know about documentation – what it actually is\, how it is used\, and the five deadly mistakes managers and supervisors make time and time again. \nWho should attend? \n\nOwners\nTop managers\nHuman resources staff\nTrainers and others associated with the development of strategies for managing people in your organization\n\nPresented by: Nicholas J. Fiorenza of Ferrara Fiorenza PC \nLunch served 11:30-12:00\nPresentation begins at 12:00 \n\n\n \nPowered by Eventbrite

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: PIA + GKG University | Are You Ready for New York State's Paid Family Leave Obligations?
DESCRIPTION:Note: This webinar is open to members of the Printing Industries Alliance (PIA) only. \nBeginning in 2018\, virtually all private sector employees in New York will be entitled to take paid family leave. Under the law\, eligible employees will be able to take 12 weeks of paid family leave per year. Employers will be required to purchase paid family leave insurance policies or self-insure with premiums funded by employees. While the law is in place\, many of the details are still being finalized. Join us to learn the latest\, including: \n\nWhich employers are covered?\nWhich employees can take the leave?\nWho pays for the leave?\nHow much leave is available to eligible employees?\nHow does this State law overlap with the federal Family and\nMedical Leave Act (FMLA)\, if at all?\nWhat can you do to prepare?\n\nPresented by Michael L. Dodd (Ferrara Fiorenza PC) \n  \n \n

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: What the 2016 Election Means for ACA

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: How Small and Mid-Sized Businesses Can Leverage “Emerging Benefits” For Employees (Cost Effectively!)
DESCRIPTION:It is often believed that small to mid-sized businesses simply can’t offer some of the benefits of larger organizations. We beg to differ. Employees in smaller organizations have the same needs as those of larger organizations; and\, now\, small to mid-sized companies don’t have to compromise. Learn how you can cost effectively bring “emerging benefits” to your employees without the administrative burden. \nIn this webinar\, we will discuss the following:\n• What are the New Benefits coming to the market?\n• Who are the vendors?\n• What are the costs?\n• How can a small to mid-sized employer bring this to their organization?  \n
