In this webinar, Suzi Wear (Xenium HR) hosts employment attorney and litigator Luke Reese (Garrett Hemann Robertson PC) for a practical update on key Oregon and federal employment law developments impacting employers in 2025 and 2026. You will hear what changed, what is straightforward this year, and what still requires employer attention, including compliance updates, enforcement priorities, and litigation trends that can shape risk.

Topics include new pay statement requirements, unemployment benefits in strike scenarios, updates that align Oregon paid sick leave with Paid Leave Oregon, expanded BOLI support for employers through the Employer Assistance Division, hiring process restrictions related to age, expanded timelines for certain claims, limits on noncompetition agreements for licensed medical professionals, and updated lactation break requirements for agricultural workers. The second half focuses on courtroom-driven lessons: how to assign a clear decision maker, document thoughtfully, and prepare for defensible outcomes if disputes escalate.

This session wraps with live Q&A covering pay transparency questions, recording and AI note-taking considerations, and remote work risks across state lines.
