    September Chapter Meeting and Breakfast Presentation with Albert Lee on: Labor Law Updates

    Pending approval for HRCI and SHRM Credits

    In May of 2016, the Department of Labor issued a long-awaited Final Rule, effective December 1, 2016, that expands the right to overtime pay to over 4 million workers who are currently exempt.  Since then, there has been much debate and talk about the Final Rule.  Is there any chance it won’t go into effect on December 1st?  Is there any way around it?  What does this mean?  What should we be doing if we are willing to increase pay to retain the exempt status of the potentially effected employees? What should we be doing if we are not?  

    Albert Lee, a management-sided employment lawyer with 25 years of experience, employment law professor and professional speaker will lead a practical, fast-paced, interactive and non-legalese discussion that will address these and other questions. Albert is a shareholder and practice group chair of Tucker Arensberg, a Pittsburgh-based business-minded law firm that has been recognized with a First-Tier National Ranking in the U.S. News World Report/Best Lawyers® Best Law Firms edition.  He has helped his clients, which range from some of the largest international companies and insurers to regional family-owned businesses, handle their human resources issues since 1992. Although his clients are quite varied, they are concentrated in the manufacturing, technology, healthcare/senior care, and service sectors. 

    Albert is a member of the adjunct faculty of the University of Pittsburgh - Johnstown, Penn State University - New Kensington, La Roche College, and St. Francis University. Albert received his law degree from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law.  He has a Bachelor of Arts degree in mathematics and a Bachelor of Science in Engineering degree in computer science and engineering from the University of Pennsylvania.
