AUSTIN The dynamics of today’s fast-paced ever-changing economy can sometimes make it a challenge for employers to stay abreast of laws affecting their workers and businesses. That’s why the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) is inviting Marble Falls-area business owners and managers to the Texas Business Conference (TBC) on Friday June 29 2007.
“The conference provides employers an opportunity to familiarize themselves with laws affecting them and their workers” said TWC Commissioner Representing Employers Ron Lehman. “Many employers were mailed invitations to attend but even those who may not have received one are encouraged to attend.”
Employers will learn how to avoid costly pitfalls when operating a business and learn techniques to more effectively manage employees. Lehman and his staff will present practical up-to-date information and preview new high-tech tools for finding workers.
Agency attorneys and staff will discuss employee handbooks hiring and retention firing workplace investigations Unemployment Insurance (UI) UI tax credits wage and hour laws workers’ compensation and more.
Participants will receive an invaluable TBC handbook including the latest edition of the popular publication Especially for Texas Employers which addresses basic legal issues in hiring post-employment problems and work separation policy. The conference also offers general professional credit as well as six hours of continuing education for participating certified public accountants.
