Overtime - What you should know... and Medical Notes from your Absent Employee
Description
Due to the overwhelming request by our membership for a discussion group type of format on current HR related-topics and with applicability to firms of all sizes, we are pleased to have Blair McCreadie share his knowledge and best practices on two topics that affect all our firms today. Specifically, Blair will present an overview on the burning issues of "Overtime - What you should know in terms of policy and application in today's law firms", as well as "Making a Medical Breakthrough: Getting More Than a One-Line Medical Note from your Absent Employee". Blair is a dynamic speaker and I know you will both enjoy and gain a lot from his presentation and Q and A session.
