     TAHRA Annual Legal Seminar

    Topics Include: 

    The Labor Law World Turned on its Head:

    From making illegal common Employee Handbook policies, to greatly expanding what constitutes “protected concerted activity” for employees, to changing the union election rules to make it extraordinarily difficult for non-union employers to remain non-union, in the last year the Biden NLRB has enacted a host of substantial labor law changes that greatly impact union and non-union Indiana employers. This session will provide an up-to-date summary of the recent developments in labor law and offer tips on how Indiana businesses can adapt to satisfy them.

    Is DEI DOA?:

    In June 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court held unconstitutional the affirmative action practices in the college admissions programs of Harvard University and the University of North Carolina, sending a shockwave through academia. And despite this opinion addressing only these two specific college admissions processes, political rhetoric and burgeoning litigation have now called into question the diversity, equity, and inclusion (“DEI”) efforts of American organizations. Even so, achieving the objectives of DEI and similar initiatives remains important, or even essential, to many institutions. So how should these aims be pursued in the wake of the Supreme Court’s opinion? Attend this session for advice on how to thread this shifting eye of the needle.

    Often Overlooked Indiana Employment Laws:

    Employers are so affected by the network of federal employment laws that it has become easy for some employers to overlook the many Indiana laws that require thoughtful attention by Indiana employers. This session will discuss these Indiana legal obligations, and explain how they fit together with the federal scheme of laws.
