About the Sessions
During the Legal Update you will hear from speakers from the Department of Labor, FordHarrison LLP, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Presentation Description: This presentation will focus on what employers need to know about the PUMP for Nursing Mothers Act and the child labor provisions under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Under the PUMP for Nursing Mothers Act, most employees have the right to break time and private space to express breast milk for their nursing child which is available for up to one year after the child’s birth. In addition, the federal child labor provisions of the FLSA were enacted to ensure that when young people work, the work is safe and does not jeopardize their health, well-being, or educational opportunities. A recent spike in child labor violations has been seen across the country and covering the important provisions of this law could prevent violations, injuries and fatalities involving minors in the workplace.

Speaker: Wildalí Lugo De Jesús, District Director, Orlando District Office

Presentation Description: This presentation is designed to provide an update on hot topics and legal developments impacting the workplace, including the latest EEOC guidance on the new federal laws providing rights for pregnant employees, milestone changes made to the David-Bacon Prevailing Wage Requirements, and the latest from the National Labor Relations Board.  The session will also include an interactive session to help HR professional recognize and effectively address workplace challenges that seem to keep coming up on a recurring basis… from applicants and employees who present medical marijuana cards when asked to drug test, to the manager who wants to fire an employee for attendance issues after neglecting to give the employee notice of FMLA rights
