SUMMARY:'First Thursday' - Labor Law Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:WHEN A "QUIT" IS A "DISCHARGE" (As in Wrongful Discharge)                                    \n\n \n\nMost employers recognize the legal perils associated with wrongful discharges. Unfortunately\, a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing\, as demonstrated by those employers who attempt to avoid legal exposure by adopting the famous last words\, "I'll just get him to quit."\n\n \n\nThis temptation can be a dangerous trap\, and has doomed many employers to huge jury awards who otherwise had a perfectly justified (and legally defensible) reason for the termination.\n\n\n\nThis ongoing seminar series is being conducted by veteran Petaluma labor & employment attorney\, Jay Putnam. Putnam\, has advised employers exclusively\, in labor matters for almost 35 years. He hopes to provide local business owners and managers with a solid\, working understanding of California labor law\, as a means of helping them avoid the often crippling cost and disruption caused by lawsuits resulting from a misunderstanding of applicable legal requirements.\n\n\n\nMembers are encouraged to bring their questions.  Putnam says he intends to conduct the seminars as "informal\, working sessions\, where people can bring their lunch and their questions and leave each month with important information that will immediately improve their business operations."\n\n\n\n To register\, please email the Chamber at pacc@petalumachamber.com\, or call 707.762.2785
