A new G-P webinar maps the legal risks of borderless hiring and how to manage them
Although the case for hiring globally has never been stronger, neither has the legal exposure that comes with it. As Canadian organizations build borderless teams and lean on AI to move faster, the gap between global ambition and local compliance is widening, and many HR teams are not equipped to close it.
A 2026 At Work report found that while 41 percent of executives say AI makes talent access easier, the same technology is introducing compliance risks most organizations are not prepared to manage. An upcoming webinar, Risk vs. reward: How to balance global hiring and compliance, takes on a timely challenge: Canadian employers navigating labour law at home alongside cross-border obligations.
Hosted by Globalization Partners (G-P)’s Employment Counsel II, North America, Netta Rotstein, the 60-minute session delivers a practical roadmap for managing global workforces without scaling legal liability. Drawing on her expertise in Canadian and US labour and employment law, Rotstein will break down actionable strategies HR teams can easily implement.
She brings an unusual vantage point to the subject. A social-work-informed attorney who pairs an MSW with legal knowledge, Rotstein takes a human-centric approach to compliance rather than treating it as pure box-ticking. Her experience spans years as a California litigator at large and boutique employment-defence firms, followed by an in-house role at a major PEO where she honed the multi-state compliance familiarity she now applies to global workforces. At G-P, she advises cross-functional leaders and plays an integral role in shaping the company’s legally sound products.
Key takeaways for attendees include:
- how to access global talent while staying compliant with local labour laws
- why AI document accuracy is a growing legal risk and how to protect your organization
- how to close the compliance gap by combining human know-how with compliant AI
As Rotstein is set to show, hiring across borders does not have to mean inheriting borderless risk. Register now to join HR leaders across Canada for this essential session on building a compliant global workforce.
