Every year, lawmakers change dozens of employment laws and regulations at the state, federal, and local levels. As an employer, you must be compliant with ALL of the hundreds of laws that apply to you ALL of the time—or risk lawsuits, fines, and penalties.
Many practice owners assume that they're safe -- that their at-will status or existing office policies will protect them when the time comes. But at-will status is easily damaged, and your policies can only protect you if they're compliant with the laws that apply to your business. The thing is, most business owners don't even realize where they are vulnerable until a problem shows up at their doorstep and, at that point, it's already too late to do anything about it.
In this eye-opening presentation, CEDR Solution Center Advisor Brittleigh Cox will reveal some of the most common HR compliance traps that practice owners miss and employers must proactively avoid. Cox will also discuss how having the right policies in place will not only protect your business, but will also make your day-to-day operations easier and far, far safer.

--------------------------------------------
• The most common policy mistakes found in dental office manuals.
• How a policy’s wording can create or dispel liability for your practice.
