We’re bringing the world to you. Join Baker McKenzie for our annual Global Employment Law webinar series.

In the face of intensifying geopolitical risk and continuing economic uncertainty, the challenges for global employers to plan carefully and operate strategically to maintain a thriving workforce is greater than ever.

In each 60-minute discussion, we will explore:

  • The Local Political & Economic Climate
  • How Global Hot Topics Play Out Locally, highlighting developments in:
    • Noncompete Agreements
    • The Shifting ID&E Landscape
    • Labor Relations
