September 15, 2010Top 10 Employment Pitfalls - Little Mistakes That Lead to Big Liabilities

Abstract: For employers, dealing with employees has never been more challenging or more risky. The weight of new and changing employment laws and regulations, the uncertainties of how those changes will be implemented, an obvious pro-employee/pro union administration in Washington, the aggressiveness of employees, former employees, and the attorneys and unions that represent them--all of this makes it more essential than ever before for human resources professionals to take a careful look at their company's practices, policies, procedures and overall approaches to dealing with employees.

October 5, 2010Minimizing Risk and Maximizing Protection: Best Practices for Not-For-Profit Organization Liability Protection and Insurance Coverage

Abstract:

Trends toward better governance and greater accountability in the for-profit corporate world are raising corresponding expectations among not-for-profits. At the same time, recent finan­cial market volatility, coupled with the recessionary business environment, has increased the potential liability of associations and other not-for-profit organizations and those who serve on their boards or in senior manage­ment positions. Directors and officers must understand their legal and fiduciary obligations for their organization’s decisions and actions and how to pro­tect the organization's assets against claims. Learn how to develop risk management strate­gies that will minimize liability, gain a better understanding of indemnification obli­gations and best practices, and improve your knowledge of key issues in analyzing not-for-profit organization insurance coverage. Neal Gerber Eisenberg partner Angela R. Elbert is a featured speaker.
