Episode 35: Fall 2019 Legislative Roundup – Labor & Employment Bills


Listen Later

Host Sloan Simmons talks with Lozano Smith partners Michelle Cannon and Gabriela Flowers, co-chairs of the firm’s Labor and Employment Practice Group, about important new labor and employment laws passed in 2019 and how they will impact public agency employers in the new year.  Topics covered include employment classifications, probationary periods for classified public school employees, new lactation accommodation requirements, settlement agreements with employees, and expansion of anti-discrimination laws, among others.  This a must listen as we head into the new year, as most of these new laws become effective January 1, 2020, and may require changes to agency policies.
