Chris Kauders, mediator/arbitrator with Pretrial Solutions, and Pam Smith, an attorney with more than twenty years experience as in-house counsel with two Fortune 500 companies and a major university, will discuss the explosion in disability discrimination claims due to an aging and less healthy workforce which often results from management’s lack of awareness and training. Too often, employers assume managers know the right thing to do; unfortunately, oftentimes they do not. The manager’s ignorance will be no excuse under the law for the employer. The solution: some simple and cost-effective steps that employers can take to avoid litigation which our speakers will share with us.
