Lunch and Learn: Basics and Current Events in Employment Law
The attorneys at Murnane Brandt advise employers on a regular basis about issues of employment law. This Lunch and Learn seminar will cover employment law in North Dakota. Employment law is an area of perpetual concern for employers, and is an area that Murnane Brandt is called upon to advise on regularly. Peter Tiede, a 20 year attorney with the firm will talk about North Dakota employment law, covering such subjects as:
The at will employment doctrine, and its exceptions. While North Dakota is an at will employment state, there are several laws, both state and federal, that limit and define the application of the doctrine of at will employment.
The presentation will cover at will employment, and laws applicable to it.
The presentation will also talk about how to escalate discipline of at will employees, up to and including terminations.
Non-competition agreements. By statute, North Dakota treats non-competition agreements very differently than other states, severely limiting and even prohibiting such agreements in many circumstances. This can be a substantial constraint on employers in times like the present with very low unemployment.
The presentation will cover non-competition agreements, how the North Dakota statutes treat them, and when they are permissible.
Finally, the presentation will give a brief overview of new developments in the law, both in terms of legal developments, and in terms of typical questions and trends the firm sees advising clients.
Cost to attend is $15 for Chamber members and $20 for non-members. Lunch will be provided. Please RSVP by registering above or by calling Amanda Schumacher at 701-223-5660.
