Colorado Legislature?
That’s a darn good question. In short, the last few days of the Colorado legislative session was a frequently-changing landscape right up until the end. Fortunately, with the session officially coming to a close, we now have a much better idea of the landscape ahead for Colorado employers. For example, whatever became of the efforts to implement a FAMLI bill (i.e., did a bill pass that set out guidelines for dates for future implementation)? Did the final version of the Equal Pay Act pass and provide Colorado employers guidance on how to implement a compensation system, job descriptions, etc.? And what about all the bills regarding use of convictions at the hiring stage; some of which weren’t proposed until late April?
These and many other issues will be discussed at this upcoming WCHRA special session, which is, in essence, a follow-up to the Spring Conference. At this session, Michael Santo, of Bechtel Santo & Severn, will discuss all the final legislative changes and provide tips, insights, policies/practices, etc. to ensure that your organization is ready for and complying with the new legal changes.
When you join us for this Special Session, you'll also be supporting SHRM Foundation. 50% of registration proceeds will be donated directly to the Foundation.
