Event summary

The workplace is changing faster than ever – and employers are navigating an increasingly complex legal and business landscape.

Join Cooley’s annual HR Network, a webinar series designed for in-house counsel, human resources professionals and business leaders. Across seven sessions, Cooley lawyers will deliver practical, business-focused insights on the workplace issues shaping 2026 and beyond – from major developments in UK and US employment law to AI in the workplace, workforce management, employee benefits and retirement programs, and strategies for leading a modern multigenerational workforce.

Session 3: US Legal Update: Leaves, Accommodations, NLRA and RIFs

The second installment of our US legal update will provide a practical update on mainstay employment issues – the daily complexity of managing leaves of absence and accommodating disabilities – along with some of the more dramatically changed areas of employment law under the current presidential administration. The presentation will address significant recent developments affecting the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) and workforce reductions, including key changes to NLRA enforcement priorities and practical Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act compliance considerations for employers navigating layoffs and restructurings in a volatile market.
