What’s more, Millennials have a completely different career agenda than their boomer predecessors. Be prepared to make some significant changes to your old talent management and career progression models or be left behind in the war for talent.

We will review important decisions which further loosen the definition of a religion to include specific practices. We’ll also review a series of cases in which employers failed to accommodate an employee’s need for religious accommodation, which resulted in liability for the employers. Also, guns are becoming more and more of an issue with Mississippi employers. The speaker will cover employees’ rights, obligations, and what an employer can do.

With each new presidential administration, government agencies such as the OFCCP deploy their regulatory powers in different ways. The Obama-era OFCCP shifted from compliance assistance to heavy enforcement, while carrying out new executive orders on sick leave, the minimum wage, and pay secrecy. As President Donald Trump’s appointees begin setting regulatory policy, how will they approach affirmative action enforcement? Will President Trump rescind any of President Obama’s executive orders? These are key questions for federal contractors in the coming months and years.

Legal Climate for LGBTQ Employees (Room #5)
According to the Wall Street Journal, college savings is the next big benefit employers are offering to attract and retain employees and strengthen company culture. College Savings Mississippi offers two options for saving for higher education, one of which can be offered to employees through payroll deduction at a low rate affordable to all savers. It’s easy to set up and costs your company nothing. Find out how you can help today’s workforce save so that tomorrow’s workforce is what your company needs it to be.
In 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the Defense of Marriage Act which defined “marriage” and “spouse” to apply only to opposite-sex unions for federal benefit purposes. In 2015, the Supreme Court held that the fundamental right to marriage applied to same-sex marriages, overturning state law bans on same-sex marriage. The courts are now considering whether sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender stereotypes are protected categories under Title VII. In this session, we will define “LGBTQ” and explore federal and state laws on these emerging issues.
Speaker: Michelle Williams, Chief of Staff at the Office of State Treasurer Lynn Fitch
Speaker: Jennifer G. Hall, Shareholder at Baker Donelson
