June 22, 2009

(PROVIDENCE) June 22, 2009 – A team of attorneys from Taylor Duane Barton & Gilman will conduct a July 16 seminar covering critical legal trends employers need to know in a down economy.

Moderated by partner Sheri L. Pizzi, the panel discussion will cover an array of important topics, including privacy issues in the workplace, reductions in force, employee use of social media, and wage and hour pitfalls. Other attorneys participating in the seminar are partner Andria Coletta, and associates Andrew C. Coulam, Angela L. Carr and Joshua B. Walls.

“Our program is designed to help employers stay on top of compliance issues and avoid expensive litigation," said Pizzi, a veteran employment attorney. “We will provide information to help employers prevent the financially crippling employee claims and lawsuits that plague employers in hard financial times. My colleagues and I hope to engage in a lively discussion with the audience."

The all-day continuing education seminar, entitled Employment Law from A to Z in Massachusetts, is slated to run from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Holiday Inn Taunton on
