Formerly known as the Wednesday In The Park, the new “My GMA SHRM Toolbox” sessions are geared to provide HR professionals at all levels an opportunity to further their learning in the core areas of Human Resources. The Toolbox session is meant to be a facilitated & interactive discussion to assist in this learning experience.
This toolbox program will focus on employment law regulatory and statutory changes, and on court interpretations of employment laws affecting Wisconsin employers. The program will include an Immigration Law update to address the new Form I-9, the employee verification system called E-Verify, and the current status of the new social security no-match letter rules. The program will also discuss the new Wisconsin Supreme Court disability discrimination decisions under the WFEA, address the EEOC's revisions to its ADEA regulations, the December NLRB decision addressing employee use of the employer’s e-mail system for union-related solicitations, provide an FMLA update including the federal expansion of the FMLA (granting leave to care for injured members of the Armed Forces) and more.
