With all the legal changes in 2020, we thought it appropriate that CICSHRM host our first ever “FREE” Legislative Mini-Conference.

Topic Description


So much has changed, and it is hard to stay on top of all of the changes.  We reached out to our local law office Brown, Hay and Stephens, who so graciously volunteered to present on several key topics, specific to Human Resources.  They will be covering the following topics:

Ø  Families First Act

Ø  Paycheck Protection Act

Ø  Employees not wanting to return to the workplace post-quarantine.

Ø  Work from Home Pros and Cons during COVID.

Ø  Workplace COVID policies and contact tracing.

Ø  COVID employment law “war story” attorney roundtable.  Real-time case law update.

We will be having a raffle for a 32-inch Smart TV for our local chapter members that are in attendance. The drawing will be held after the end on the conference, and you must be present to win.
