Free LightGabler Seminar: Handling Employee Disabilities

California employers find themselves faced with more employee illnesses, injuries and workplace stress claims.

Employment law firm LightGabler is presenting a free employment law seminar, "I've Fallen And I Can't Get Up…. Handling Employee Disabilities Without

Disabling Your Workplace." The seminar will be held twice: Tuesday, May 8 in Oxnard and Tuesday, May 22 in Simi Valley.

In today's stressful environment, California employers find themselves faced with more employee illnesses, injuries and workplace stress claims. While most employers want to be sensitive to any employee in crisis, increasingly burdensome employment laws can hamper an employer's ability to maintain a productive workplace with absentee employees.
