Here’s the handouts for my 1/18/12 Understanding Labor & Employment Law from a Business Perspective at Chicago’s City Hall.

The first document is a 17-page overview (PDF) of labor & employment law & HR issues, including a discussion of independent contractor versus employee issues, overtime eligible versus overtime exempt issues, what can & shouldn’t be asked in the hiring process & unemployment compensation.

The second document is a 10-slide PowerPoint containing points of emphasis & some of my opinions regarding the human capital market. Here’s the PowerPoint as a PDF.
