the new statewide mass layoff definition;
the new 90-day advance notice requirement;
the new mandatory severance requirement and its interplay with employers’ existing severance plans; and
how to navigate the transition to the new law.

The I-9 compliance webinar series is designed for attorneys and HR professionals who are new to the employment eligibility verification process, or who simply want to review the basics. This series will cover the key elements of the compliance framework and the importance of understanding the mechanics of this challenging form. In the first webinar, the speakers will review what constitutes good faith compliance, and the importance of creating internal policies and procedures that ensure I-9s are prepared timely, accurately, and completely, and that I-9 records are properly maintained.

Join this webinar as attorneys from Ogletree Deakins’ Immigration Practice Group discuss the differences between H-2A (agricultural) and H-2B (non-agricultural) work visas and which businesses qualify for each. The speakers will review the H-2B seasons and how the numerical cap process for H-2B visas works, as well as discuss strategies for obtaining temporary workers even if the H-2B cap is met. The webinar will offer timely pointers about the H-2A and H-2B programs and highlight steps to prepare for compliance-related concerns and government enforcement actions that tend to accompany these programs.
