Wages, Workplace Safety, and Termination Issues

Tuesday, July 11 3–4:30 p.m. Eastern time

Find out who’s exempt from the overtime requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act.
Learn why staffing firms are being targeted for wage and hour class-action lawsuits.
Determine how the Occupational Safety and Health Administration apportions responsibility for workplace safety between staffing firms and customers.
Learn what constitutes wrongful discharge, and why terminating an employee might lead to claims of fraud, defamation, and breach of public policy.

Is your recruiter entitled to overtime? Who is responsible for workplace safety training—you, your customer, or both? When might you think twice before terminating your at-will employees?

These are the questions that you and your customers may confront and the boundaries you may be in danger of crossing. ASA deputy general counsel Stephen Dwyer will address these and other pressing workplace issues commonly faced by staffing firms during the July 11 InterAction.

An expert on staffing industry labor and employment policy issues, Dwyer has taught many staffing professionals the fundamentals of co-employment, and has written a number of articles on legal and policy concerns pertaining to the staffing industry.

Dwyer will focus on requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act and Occupational Safety and Health Act, as well as wrongful discharge issues under state laws. You will get expert tips on how to navigate the complexities of these issues and helpful do’s and don’ts to avoid legal trouble and help protect your bottom line.

Using real-life examples and practical advice, Dwyer will address key topics presented in the ASA books Co-Employment: Employer Liability Issues in Third-Party Staffing Arrangements and Employment Law for Staffing Professionals—two textbooks used in ASA’s certification programs.

Every member of your team will benefit from this Webinar. The program is a must if you’re preparing for the Certified Staffing Professional™ or Technical Services Certified™ exam, and if you’re already certified, participation earns 1.5 continuing education hours in employment law.
