2024 was a ‘super year’ for elections. Half of the world’s population – some 4.7 billion people – went to the polls in 72 countries. Political shifts often lead to significant changes in employment laws. We’re here to help you prepare for the changes ahead and to stay ahead of the curve on employment law developments in the US and beyond.
A focal part of our programs (particularly in the US and in Mexico) will be what to expect from the recent presidential elections. In addition, we’ll address key legislative updates, workplace immigration changes, data privacy developments, new pay transparency obligations, expanding leave entitlements and more!
Please RSVP for the location(s) and topic(s) most of interest to you outlined in our “menu” below. (Please note that our Chicago program on January 8 is an opportunity to connect in person while the other review / preview updates are virtual.)
