Course description
Employment Law Update in Nevada
Get insider information on the latest, news breaking developments in Nevada’s employment law. Presented by one of Nevada’s leading Plaintiff class action labor law firms, Mr. Thierman, will present his firm’s assessment of the potential targets of these new developments—so that employers may change policies to avoid liability and employees may bring claims against those employers who do not. For example, the practical application of these developments should tell the labor law practitioner how to write an enforceable arbitration clause with a valid class action waiver, and advise employee advocate how to attack such a clause when its not effectively drafted. Another example of the practical “take away” knowledge to be gleaned from this topic is the how to draft a lawful tip pooling agreement in a state that, like Nevada, does not allow a tip credit from the minimum wage anyway. For those who practice in California as well, the discussion will cover the special situation where the federal tip pooling regulations conflict with the California state regulations. There will be a compare and contrast between the state of federal law on independent contractors and the false sense of security obtained from the safe harbor requirements of SB 224. Finally, a discussion of the private right of action doctrine under NRS Chapter 608, and recent developments like Evans v. Walmart. Whether employer or employee side, these are the topics you need to know.
