2027 Workplace Compliance Trends to Watch


December 8, 2026 2:00 PM ET

Register Now

The HR compliance landscape keeps shifting, and understanding the law is only part of staying prepared. What will recent legal decisions and changing enforcement priorities mean for your organization in 2027? According to a survey conducted by PSB Insights, 50% of HR and 62% of finance professionals experience compliance-related delays or disruptions at least quarterly.*

Join our webinar with employment attorney Natalie Holder as we explore the developments shaping workplace compliance and the priorities HR and finance leaders are focused on for the year ahead.

In this webinar, we’ll discuss:

  • Emerging compliance challenges, including worker classification and AI in employment decisions
  • Five top compliance trends identified by Holder
  • Practical steps to strengthen policies, documentation and audit-readiness

Register now to prepare for the year ahead.

*2026 survey conducted by PSB Insights and commissioned by Paycom.
