Staying Abreast of Employment Law Changes
Ignorance isn’t always bliss. When it comes to the law, it’s no excuse either. In the case of employment law, ignorance can prove surprisingly expensive. Staying abreast of employment law changes is not only important to your bottom line but to the health and safety of your employees and workplace.
Because laws are continuously changing, The Chamber of Commerce of Hawaii and Torkildson, Katz, Moore & Harris are once again partnering to provide a “what-you-need-to-know” seminar on employment law for Hawaii’s business community.
