Proceed with Caution!

Social Networking in the Workplace

 

 

September 9, 2010

 

 

Crystal Riggins, associate with the law firm of Hoge Fenton Jones and Appel, will be speaking about Social Networking and what it means for employers in the workplace. 

 

Social media is a fast-growing marketing tool for companies of all sizes.  It is not without legal concerns and risks, however.  In October 2009 the Federal Trade Commission, which enforces laws related to advertising in all types of media, broadened its Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising to include social media.  This change has big impact to employers, including the implementation of written policies regarding social networking and disclosure; and notification to all employees, independent contractors, and all other persons with material connections to your company, goods, or services of the FTC’s disclosure requirements.

 

We will be offering extra time for networking at this meeting.  Members who arrive by 11:30 can enter a special "end of summer" prize drawing!

 

 


 

California HR Trends

and Business Impact

November 11, 2010

 

 

Faced with the effects of a tough economy, globalization and continued health care cost increases, HR faces difficult challenges ahead. Add the complexities of doing business in California and the challenges multiply. This presentation will focus on critical global, national, state, and local trends impacting all us here in California in the years ahead. What are the projections ahead for the workforce and how could these impact our organizations? What can HR do to prepare our organizations to meet these challenges? The only constant is that change will happen and getting a glimpse of future possibilities also gives HR the competitive advantage to help position their organization for success.

Speaker:

Javier Lozano is currently the HR Manager-Learning & Development for Aera Energy LLC. Prior to this role Javier was the HR Manager for the City of Bakersfield where he led the HR Team in strategically transitioning the City of Bakersfield as Employer of 1st Choice.
