Agricultural operations must process a veritable mountain of information essential to remaining viable during the COVID-19 pandemic.  This webinar series has concentrated thus far on a general overview of how state and federal government have responded and how the dairy sector has been impacted.  But we know that employer compliance with laws and regulations governing the workplace and the employment relationship have never been of more interest.  There are new directives, new interpretations, and sometimes unforeseen impacts of various labor and employment laws resulting from COVID-19.  New internal policies may need to be written for the workplace to deal with the fast-moving developments.  Here is a chance to take stock of what needs to be known and accounted for.  Learn about the latest from the various divisions of the U.S. Department of Labor, the Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry, the EEOC, and other regulatory bodies, as they respond to COVID-19 on the fly.  Joining Brook Duer, Staff Attorney with the Penn State Ag Law Center, will be Schaun Henry, partner in the Harrisburg firm of McNees, Wallace & Nurick, LLC to discuss these topics.  

No prior registration necessary. To access this webinar on July 14th, please simply follow this link:  https://psu.zoom.us/j/95809623901
