Legislative advocacy and knowledge issues have become the latest competency for HR professionals. Increasingly, more legislation that is been passed has an impact for HR, employees and organizations. From Healthcare to EFCA we are seeing an explosion of HR related legislation.
Because of this, we as HR professional must be involved in the shaping of legislation. We are uniquely qualified to do so. The presentation today will discuss our role as HR and will contain an update on legislative issues facing HR today.
