#WorkforceWednesday: Avoiding Legal Illusions: Crafting Effective Arbitration Agreements

Employment Law This Week Podcast

Play Episode Listen Later May 1, 2024 4:05


This week, we're diving into arbitration agreements and learning some best practices for employers when crafting these agreements. Employers often include arbitration agreements in their onboarding and other employee materials. Arbitration agreements are an important tool for employers due to the relative speed and lower costs associated with arbitration compared to litigation. However, these agreements are subject to increasing scrutiny and require careful consideration from employers. Epstein Becker Green attorneys Victoria Sloan Lin and Andrew Lichtenstein highlight some hidden elements that can impact the effectiveness of arbitration agreements.

For years, California has had the Fair Chance Act which limited the ability of employers to use background screening information related to prior convictions in employment processes.

What does this mean for companies when they are hiring or changing their corporate structure and how can they be sure to comply with the new law?Morgan Reynolds, Vice President of Risk/Legal Counsel for DISA Global Solutions, joins this episode of the HRO Today Educational Podcast Series to unpack the new amendment to California's Fair Chance Act with HRO Today CEO Elliot Clark. From the expanded definition of “applicant” to the new regulations for both new hires and internal job shifting, Morgan and Elliot explore the effects of this legal change. Listen in as Morgan and Elliot discuss the newly amended Fair Chance Act and think through how companies can react and adapt their hiring processes to remain in compliance.

Five Legal Things That Lead to Employment Litigation

Avoiding illegal conduct is always a good strategy for avoiding employment litigation.  However, there are many legal things that employers and managers do that can also lead to litigation.  Here are five things that often lead to employment litigation:1.            Workplace Romances – while consensual relationships in the workplace are not illegal, they often lead to litigation when they end.2.            Nepotism – giving preferential treatment to friends and family in the workplace is legal but it often leads to unfairness and drives aggrieved employees to court.3.            Not Enforcing Policies – with a few exceptions (such as EEO policies), employers are not legally obligated to enact policies or follow their policies.  Nevertheless, employers should avoid enacting policies they will not or cannot enforce.4.            Conflict Avoidance – no one likes conflict but failing to address issues, even issues that don't seem to violate workplace rules, often leads to litigation.5.            Being a Jerk – technically, it is not illegal to be a jerk but even an equal opportunity jerk with no discriminatory animus will land you in court. Listen to the new episode of The Practical Employment Law Podcast for insights on these issues and more.Comments or questions: Contact Mark Chumley at mchumley@kmklaw.com or visit www.kmklaw.comMusic :Jamming with Leon by texasradiofish (c) copyright 2020 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution Noncommercial  (3.0) license. http://dig.ccmixter.org/files/texasradiofish/61983 Ft: Scomber

#TChat Radio is all new and live Wednesday, September 25, 2013, at 6:30 pm ET (3:30 pm PT), with the #TChat Twitter chat right after from 7-8 pm ET.   Last week we talked about gaming and measuring talent, and this week we're talking about the rub of transparency and privacy in the workplace between employer and employee.   The transparency movement has certainly solidified, particularly the fact that employees not just prefer but demand more transparency from their employers – for example, how much profit they’ve made, why they promote and fire certain individuals and not others.   Truth be told, while many employment laws have an indirect "transparency" mandate like in the case of Title VII and Sarbanes Oxley, generally the law does not grant a "right" of transparency to employees.   And it just gets more complicated when you add in privacy issues and the ability of an employer or an employee to prevent disclosures to the other.   Join #TChat co-creators and hosts Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman as we welcome our special guest: Mary Wright, a Shareholder and the former General Counsel of Ogletree Deakins, the US Powerhouse in Employment Litigation, and founding Editor of the HR Gazette, a daily on-line newspaper for HR Professionals and Employment Lawyers.     This will be another important #TChat show about employment law, transparency and privacy.
