In light of the current economic climate, and with remote and hybrid workplace arrangements here to stay, employers continue to face ever-changing risks and compliance issues associated with managing the modern workforce, especially when implementing reductions in force (RIFs).

In this two-part webinar series we will focus on planning for workforce reductions, given key legislative and regulatory issues, as well as implementing reductions with view towards minimizing risk during these challenging times.

Key Topics to be Discussed in Part 1 – Planning a RIF will Include:

• Planning for a RIF and RIF alternatives

• State and federal regulatory and legislative considerations (OWBPA, WARN, ERISA)

• Deciding whether to ERISA-fy the plan
