The National Council of Agricultural Employers is offering the next segment of its educational online seminar series focusing on the Department of Labor’s new adverse effect wage rate regulation.
The event will be moderated by Shawn Packer of JPH Law and is set for 3 p.m. Eastern time on March 21, according to a news release.
Joining Packer on the panel will be Jeanne Malitz of MalitzLaw, Mark Martens of Agri-Placements International Inc. and Tom Bortnyk of MasLabor. Web seminar participants will be eligible to receive one professional development credit from the Society for Human Resource Management upon completion of the webinar, the release said.
“Agricultural employers need to be aware of this damaging new regulation published by the DOL which will negatively impact their enterprise,” Michael Marsh, president and CEO of NCAE, said in the release. “The webinar will cover and attempt to answer employer questions regarding this new rule and assist employers in complying with this onerous new burden.
“The rule will have costly consequences for agricultural employers and will be challenging from a compliance standpoint,” Marsh continued. “Our presenters are extremely knowledgeable in the subject matter area and are anxious to assist in building employer understanding of the new rule.”
Registration for the online seminar is available at ncaeonline.org.
