Top Employment Cases and Legislative Changes of 2016: A Year-in-Review of Lessons for Employers

Date: November 30th, 2016

It has been another busy year in employment law, both in the courts and in the halls of government. As 2016 draws to a close, we take this opportunity to reflect on some of the key cases and legislative changes that impacted employers in 2016 and the lessons employers can draw from them.

Topics covered in this webinar include:

• Prevention of Workplace Sexual Violence and Harassment
• Flexible Work Arrangements
• Off-Duty Misconduct and Cause for Dismissal
• Temporary Layoffs and Constructive Dismissal
• New Recruitment, Selection and Hiring Obligations under AODA
• And More!

To ensure employers are well prepared for 2017, we will also highlight some key upcoming legislative changes that will affect employers in 2017.

As always, at the end of the presentation, there will be a Q&A session during which you can ask questions about any of the cases or legislation discussed in the presentation.
