Employee Benefits & Human Resources—The Year in Review & a Look at What’s Ahead

Winston & Strawn’s Employee Benefits & Executive Compensation Practice hosted an eLunch titled “Employee Benefits and Human Resources—The Year in Review and a Look at What’s Ahead” on December 7, 2016 at 12:15 p.m. Central.

2016 included significant legislative, regulatory, enforcement, and case law developments in the employee benefits and human resources area, and 2017 promises to be a year of change. Therefore, it is important to stay up-to-date on the latest legal developments, threats, and best practices. 

Steve Flores from our Employee Benefits & Executive Compensation Practice, Alessandra Swanson from our Privacy & Data Security Practice, and Cardelle Spangler from our Labor & Employment Practice, led a practical, interactive presentation that reviewed important compliance deadlines and areas of potential risk. The discussion examined the following important areas:

• Significant plan fiduciary litigation
• DOL Conflict of Interest Rules
• Affordable Care Act developments, including reporting and enforcement
• Updates on HIPAA enforcement, including the latest on OCR’s audits, recently released guidance, and case settlements
• Recent changes to employee privacy laws, including state breach notification laws and EU data transfer laws
• New overtime rules, EEOC LGBT protections, and ban the box rules
