This webinar, featuring ELA members from across the U.S. who work extensively on LGBT matters, addressed the myriad issues that every employer should know, including:

• Update on the status of the Federal Employment Non-Discrimination Act.
• ERISA compliance issues and tax implications for employers and employees with respect to benefits provided to employees in same-sex marriages, civil unions and domestic partnerships.
• Coverage of non-discrimination laws for LGBT employees.
• Policies and practices in the everyday life of a workplace (harassment and bullying, confidentiality, restrooms, employee) that H.R. departments need to know.

It was an invitation-only event exclusively for clients and friends of Employment Law Alliance (ELA) member law firms. Parker Poe is the exclusive North Carolina representative of the ELA,.
