SESSION DESCRIPTION

At the October session, Attorneys Cris Houston and David Schleicher, will break down the latest on employment law developments.

While you were busy doing good, the U.S. Department of Labor increased salary requirements for exempt employees, the Texas Legislature made it easier to sue individual supervisors for certain kinds of discrimination, Congress expanded protections for pregnant workers, and the Supreme Court made it easier for employees to pursue a discrimination suit over a what the employer claimed was a lateral transfer.

The presenters will break down what these changes mean for the nonprofit sector moving forward.
