HRD Canada is launching our Employment Law Masterclass Alberta
With legal changes always on the horizon, it’s incumbent on employers to keep abreast of any upcoming revisions in employment law. With that in mind, HRD Canada is launching our Employment Law Masterclass Alberta, a chance for HR leaders and senior people directors to glean updates on legislation – and digest complex regulatory concerns.
At this exclusive event, we will be address questions such as;
- How can employers accommodate workers with mental or physical disabilities while still meeting business goals?
- How can employers identify and respond to incidents of bullying and harassment in the office and in hybrid workplaces?
- How can employers best manage employee privacy and balance it with the needs of the business?
One of our sessions will be specifically targeted at managing accommodations in the workplace for mental and physical health issues – hosted by Lindsey Knibbs, associate at Blake, Cassels & Graydon.
Whether dealing with chronic mental or physical health issues, and episodic or long-term disability, employers need to be mindful of their duty to accommodate. This sessions will cover;
- What types of new accommodation challenges are employers facing, and how should they best respond?
- What proactive steps do employers need to take to ensure they are properly accommodating employees’ needs to avoid future litigation, while ensuring they are protecting the needs of the business?
- Understanding an employer’s duty to accommodate – stress, depression, long-term disability
- Managing the intersecting obligations of employment standards, human rights, and benefits
- Assessing the legal implications of granting episodic leave
