Labor Implications of Geopolitical Risks
Recorded On: 02/06/2025
- Registration Closed
Many corporations and their labor practices have a global presence, specifically in the European Union (EU). As a result, corporate counsel must consider the major privacy, data security, and direct artificial intelligence (AI)-related regulations in the EU AI Act. Additionally, the recently enacted EU Directive on Pay Transparency Act is expected to have global effects by requiring more transparency on corporations’ pay practices and employee disclosure.
This webinar will discuss the latest labor developments stemming from the EU AI Act and the Pay Transparency Act. Tentative topics include global AI governance policy, compliance best practices, employer’s obligations, labor risk and liability management, pay equity, and multinational companies with employees in one or more EU member states.
This program originally aired on Feb. 6, 2025. Please note that the on-demand format of this program is not eligible for CLE/CPD credit.
