Employment Practice
With a solid understanding of how businesses should operate,
Wendel Rosen's employment group attorneys bring a responsive
and problem-solving approach to the businesses that turn to
them for guidance. Lawyers in the group help clients with
policy planning, contract drafting and negotiating, and management
training aspects of employee relations, as well as litigation
matters.
Any company that has even a single employee is exposed to
employment issues. Clients of the practice have included homebuilders,
employment staffing companies, product manufacturers, and
dealership franchises, to name a few. While we have done work
with companies large and small, many mid-sized businesses
appreciate the value offered by our practical approach to
these types of issues.
Here's a sample of matters typically
undertaken by the group:
- Wrongful termination
- Discrimination and harassment claims
- Wage and hour matters
- Employment contracts and nondisclosure agreements
- Severance and separation agreements
- Reduction in force
- Employee benefit
plans
- Leaves (military, family, etc.) provisions and compliance
- Employee discipline matters
- Collective bargaining and National Labor Relations Bureau
- Occupational Safety & Health Administration
- Americans with Disabilities Act provisions and compliance
- Unfair business practices and competition matters
- ERISA and
COBRA compliance and fiduciary obligations
The firm's employment lawyers frequently assist client companies
by training management on employment issues, assisting with
the development of personnel policies and handbooks, and providing
diversity training.
In addition to successful courtroom advocacy at the trial
and appellate levels, the firm is also experienced appearing
before administrative and regulatory bodies on behalf of employers,
including the California Labor Commissioner, California Department
of Fair Employment and Housing, and the U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission.
Anti-Sexual Harassment Compliance
Courses
As of January 1, 2006, Anti-Sexual Harassment Training is
required by law for supervisors at companies with 50 or more
employees. Consider hiring Gillian
M. Ross and David
Goldman to present the new guidelines to your company.
Their presentations can easily be brought to your offices.
The training includes a PowerPoint presentation and written
handouts to meet the requirements of the new law.
For more information about the law, read "Anti-Harassment
Training to Become Mandatory," which discusses the
new law in a little more detail.
