As enforcement of workplace protection laws gains momentum – from the UK Worker Protection Act to California’s SB 553 – HR leaders are navigating a growing web of responsibilities. These policies may no longer be “new,” but their impact is only just beginning to reshape how organizations prevent harm, promote equity, and respond to regulatory scrutiny.
This webinar explores why compliance alignment is no longer optional – and how HR professionals can lead the way in building a culture of safety, accountability, and trust.
Join us to learn how to:
- Interpret evolving legal standards and their implications for HR policies and training
- Strengthen collaboration with compliance teams to close operational gaps
- Respond to regulatory enforcement with confidence and clarity
- Foster a workplace culture that supports both employee well-being and organizational risk management
Who should attend:
- HR executives and business partners
- DEI and employee relations leaders
- Compliance and ethics professionals
- Legal and risk management teams
In today’s climate, HR doesn’t just need compliance – it needs collaboration. Learn what it takes to move forward together.
