Human Resources Laugh & Learn
Grand Ballroom
Presented by Craig Twombly of Priority Learning and Debby Olken of KMA Human Resources Consulting.
Are your people-practices fair, consistent and compliant? Your answer might be “Yes” or “I hope they are” but it might also be “I have no clue!” Through no fault of your own, you only know what you know.
In this “non-conventional” human resources workshop, you will have the opportunity to observe behaviors and habits that leave you open for legal risk. We will also explore how you can create an environment to retain and attract employees. By the end of the session, you will be able to assess how well your business complies with the laws (current and proposed) and HR “best practices”. We hope you will join Debby and Craig from Priority Learning and KMA as we laugh and learn!
